1. How reliable is your service? Do you have power back up?

Our answer: Service reliability is #1 on our list and should be with any service provider. We have a redundant network and power supply prepared for emergencies and high volume usage. Our track record with service uptime is nearly 100%

2. What increments do you bill in?

Our answer: This is one of the most popular questions. We offer billing in 6 second increments. You will wind up losing money with 30 second or 1 minute billing. When companies don't mention what increments they bill in, they may be hiding their intent to bill you in increments larger than 6 seconds.

3. Are there any long term contracts, hidden costs or obligations?

Our answer: No. Our pricing structure is straight forward and you can cancel the service at any time. We even offer a free trial service so you can try before you buy. 

4. Will your rates ever increase? Is this just an introductory rate?

Our answer: This is not an introductory rate. We do not see our rates changing in the foreseeable future. Our rates have actually decreased in the last few years as opposed to increasing.

5. Once acquiring a number with your company, do I own the number?

Our answer: Yes you do. We truly feel that the quality of our service and our inexpensive rates are good enough to keep you as a permanent customer with us. However, if for any reason you need to choose a new carrier you are free take your number along with you. You will be able to port the number to another carrier as long as you are in good standing with the current carrier.

6. How long have you been in business?

Our Answer: We have been in business since 2001. Seniority sometimes shows credibility.

7. Does your per minute rate have double-legged billing? Will I be billed for inbound and outbound phone calls? 

Our Answer: No you will not. Double-legged billing is a charge for an outbound phone call made by the carrier to bridge the caller waiting on hold with the subscriber. This usually applies to unified messaging services where the caller first hears an initial greeting or menu with options then makes a selection to speak with the subscriber. Here at 800 Number Resource.com we offer basic toll free service as opposed to unified messaging and voice mail services. We do not have double - legged billing. Once the caller dials your toll free number they are connected straight through to you without any greetings or menus. With our service you are billed just one per minute rate all the time - 3.9 cents per minute.
