Caution: Some of those 8XX numbers are foreign and end up charging your phone a significant fee. Not all 8xx numbers are toll free.

I blocked all foreign calls and twice I have had to have a collect call that was never received reversed on my phone bill; however, the identified nymber did answer and the operator agreed to cancel the charge.

Thanks for the heads-up. We will keep a watch on that.

Thanks for the info. Is this something that can be easily determined by trying to call the number from a public telephone?
