It depends on your telephone company as to whether that is even possible.

Area code 866 is one of the toll-free prefixes for North America, along with 800, 888, 877, and 855. Future toll-free codes include 844, 833, and 822.

In North America (USA and Canada, plus 18 Caribbean/nearby islands), area code 866 is used for toll-free numbers, along with area codes 800, 888, 877, and 855, and future toll-free area codes 844, 833, and 822.

From a landline phone, including a payphone, just dial 1-866-xxx-xxxx. On a cell phone (mobile phone), you can usually dial just 866-xxx-xxxx. There is no long-distance charge for the call, but airtime charges may still apply on a cell phone.

In North America (USA, Canada, etc.), area code 866 is just a toll-free number. When we ran out of toll-free 800 numbers, other prefixes were added, including 888, 877, 866, and 855. The 844 toll-free prefix is expected to be added in December 2013.

Thus, if you got a phone call that shows on your caller ID with a number in area code 866, it's probably a company, and the toll-free number is their main contact number.

That depends on your telephone service provider (i.e., your phone company) and may also depend on the make and model of mobile phone you are using.
