Growing up, my family friends had their own toll free number. I was duly impressed by what I considered a huge luxury. The driving motivation for the personal 800 number was a little more practical than impressing the neighborhood kids: their mother wanted to be sure her children would always be able to call home, even if they were without change at a payphone. Personal 800 numbers are growing in popularity as a way to minimize the expense of long distance calling, including the especially high long distance rates at college campuses. Competitive toll free providers are offering highly cost-effective plans. Voice over IP technology - available through providers like Vonage - is driving these costs down further, making toll free calling sensible for more than just business applications.
