How it works
A toll-free number is a virtual address that can point to one or more locations using intelligent network databases for routing criteria The called party pays for the call (hence toll-free to the caller).The toll-free number can terminate to either switched or dedicated terminating addresses (TAs). A switched number is a 10-digit public switched telephone network (PSTN) dialable number that points to a single physical location in the network. A dedicated number is an internal identifier to the Qwest network that points to a single physical location.
