In North America (USA, Canada, etc.), area codes 800, 888, 877, 866, 855, and 844 (effective Dec. 7, 2013) are toll-free to the caller, so the called number pays the long-distance charges. Those numbers are, in effect, automated collect calls. Area codes 833 and 822 are reserved for future toll-free use.

What I suspect you meant, though, is what area codes carry surcharges for content. Area code 900 is for value-added content, including everything from tech support to "psychic" readings to adult chat. Area code 700 also can be used for such purposes, but it is important to note that 700 numbers are dependent on the long-distance carrier used. You will sometimes see advertisements for 101xxxx-1-700-xxx-xxxx, with the prefix code designating the long-distance company that serves that number.
