You have found AOH Easter Egg #71! You are rewarded with an early peek at something we are working on. This list was found on the web while researching a phone number (800-263-1167) we found that we intend to include in our "Telephone Recordings" section. The number is in this list but the descriptions appear to have nothing to do with the numbers....?

AT&T's is the biggest toll free directory, http://www.anywho.com. They
charge companies to be listed (unless you're an AT&T customer). That's
also the way to be listed with 800 directory assistance (3-100
555-2212).
The other directory is the Internet 800 Directory
http://www.gotollfree.com. It receives the listings from some additional
toll free carriers and you can place listings in it for free here.
Unfortunately neither of these services has all or even a very large
percent of all toll free number owners listed because there is no
central database of all toll free numbers.
Why isn't there any national database or Toll Free Directory?
The ownership information for toll free numbers is maintained by the
phone company responsible for each number. There are just over three
hundred resporgs and several times that many more resellers. It's their
responsibility to keep your customer information private because you
wouldn't want telemarketers calling you on your nickel would you? It's
definitely a different approach than the openness of the internet, but
that's the way toll free numbers were set up. They're designed for
portability and privacy.
How I can help you find info about an 800 number?
I'm one of the top toll free experts in the country. I have specialized
in tracking down the best possible toll free number for major companies
for almost 10 years. I wrote the book "Phone Numbers that Make Money." I
also have my own resporg, UniversalReservations.com, which gives me full
access to the database so I can tell you the phone company responsible
for any toll free number. That doesn't give me the customer information,
but I also have one of the best private investigators in the country
that specializes in tracking down this type of information.
