What is an 800 number?
An 800 number is a toll-free phone number that starts with the 800 prefix. Toll-free calls are routed to a local number, and the cost of the call is paid for by the phone number’s owner, not the caller.
Other toll-free prefixes include 833, 844, 855, 866, 877, and 888. 800 numbers are the most popular and as a result, they’re often in high demand and in short supply.
