Getting a toll-free number for callers

I would like to have the option for some callers to dial in toll-free and others to not. Is there a way to do this? I found an FAQ stating that you can use a toll-free number but haven't been able to find out how to set this up. Does anyone know?

    I would recommend staying away from Verizon Tollfree numbers. I tried to set one up for my business earlier this year and the service was a disaster. As a life-long Verizon user, it was very disappointing.

    I was looking for the same optons.

    As far as I can tell there is no Mixed plan for some caller to use toll free and the others dial in on thire expence.

    In any case the supplirer will chrgege for the pepole who are using the confrance call (tall free or not).

    There is a service from freeconfrancecall where they offer free confrance calls (not tol free).
    if there was a way to have Adobe connect allow Host group to dial out this would be feasible.

    Go for a good service provider who provides this kind of services because in toll free setup's usually other services which are related to toll free numbers; they are also provided by the organization.

    It completely depends on the service provider, wheather they provide or not a service like this. As far as I know, not all service providers allows these services. So it’s better to choose an appropriate service provider according that can fulfil your requirements.

    That is an advanced option but likely available with most business toll free plans.  Possibly you can configure through call screening.  somewhat of an unusual request but i can definitely see the value in offering a toll free numbers to a predefined group rather than everyone.  Would be interested to know the resolution you found.  KC, Great America Networks Conferencing  Free Conference Calls

    A toll free service comes with a complete virtual PBX package features. Meaning call management functionality (call screening, caller ID, call blocking, answering rules, call routing, call controller, etc.) can be taken advantage of.

    If you want to filter out who can dial your tollfree phone numbers then check with your provider whether they have call management features like: call controller, call screening, caller ID, call forwarding, call blocking etc.

    If you want to limit and filter callers from dialing your toll free numbers then you may want to check the following features:

    - Call Screening

    - Call Length

    - Call Blocking

    - Answering Rules

    - Time of Day Routing

    The best way to limit and help in saving cost-expenses with the use of toll free service is by using a maximum call length feature.
