Many businesses have toll free numbers that allow customers and others to call them at no charge. This can mean significant savings if you need to make a call during business hours to a company located far away. Using a toll free number means that you don't have to worry about paying a telephone company's daytime long distance rates, which are often very expensive.
Instructions
1. Check company literature. This includes the company's annual report, business cards and website. Each of these places often lists a toll free number.
2. Consult toll free directories. Toll Free Directory Assistance--(800) 555-1212--is available 24 hours per day, seven days per week. There are also a number of phone number search websites available in which you can lookup toll free numbers.
3. Investigate business profiles. Hoover's and the Better Business Bureau usually list full address information with each business profile. If a business has a toll free number, it will almost always appear with the business profile.
