Toll-free numbers (area codes 800, 888, 877, 866, and 855) can be tailored to accept calls only from specific states, cities, or even neighborhoods. If you are trying to call a toll-free number from outside the owner's chosen service area, the call will not complete. Your only options are:

  • Try the call from within the service area for that number,
  • Try the call using a VoIP service or other dialaround service, or
  • Try to find a regular geographic number for the company you're trying to contact.

MagicJack does it cost people dialing from a different area code If not I'd like to get a vanity?

If someone calls your MagicJack phone number, it will be a long-distance call if the area code and prefix is outside of the caller's local calling area. For example, if you get a MagicJack number in area code 816 (Kansas City, MO), and someone calls you on that number from Denver, it will be a long-distance call, even if you and your MagicJack are physically located in Denver. Of course, if your friend has a calling plan with unlimited U.S. long distance, it's not a problem.
