Question: Why is there such a sense of urgency for the new 844 toll free number?
Answer:  The FCC's Toll Free National Database administrator, SMS/800 does not accept any submission for an 844 number reservation from any Responsible Organizations (RespOrg) before that time.  Every RespOrg (there are 300+) with 844 reservations started submitting their customer reservations at noon.  While the code opening is a level playing field in terms of equal access for all RespOrgs, technology was the decisive and winning factor in converting 844 code reservations to secured numbers.

Question: Why is the RespOrgs technology so crucial and important?
Answer:  There are generally three access methods in which a RespOrg may submit their customer’s 844 number reservation requests to the FCC's SMS Toll Free National Database administrator.  The mechanized technology (MGI access) is by far the fastest and also least utilized because of the heavy costs involved in implementing such a system.  At this time, there are only a hand full of RespOrgs that have been certified to use this access method.  (844Capture.com’s partner Worldlink Services Corp or “YNW01” is one of them.)  In addition to this, what sets these RespOrgs apart is their particular technology implementation and the means in which they are built to utilize the mechanized API. Worldlink has developed a specially tuned platform for the capture of 844 Numbers.

Question: What makes 844Capture.com so special and sets you apart from other RespOrgs for fulfilling my 844 toll free number reservation request(s)?
Answer: There is no speed issue on the SMS side as it is built to take the load from the 300+ RespOrgs.  We are Certified Responsible Organization authorized by the FCC's SMS Toll Free National Database Administrator for the Management of Toll Free numbers.  Worldlink is one of only a handful of Responsible Organizations (RespOrg) and Service Control Point operators that are authorized to directly connect to the main frames in Eagan, MN and Salt Lake City, UT.  While there can be no guarantee by any RespOrg, the possibility of converting your number reservations to acquired status by us is extremely good.

Question: Is there a limit on the quantity of 844 numbers I may request?
Answer: There is no limit on the quantity of 844 numbers you may request.  With our technology we are capable of obtaining a large quantity at the code opening.

Question: You are NOT charging any up front fee for reservations of 844 toll free prefix code numbers.   Other vendors are charging much more money, some as high as $500, up front even before the 844 toll free code opening. Then, if they are unsuccessful, they are still charging a fee for the search.  How is it that 844Capture.com is so reasonably priced and cost effective? 
Answer:  844Capture.com service is extremely cost effective (a no charge reservation and only a fee as low as $99.00 if successful) because the technology implementation driving our API with the SMS is state-of-the art and absolutely unparalleled!  There are no speed issues on the SMS side as it is built to take the load from the 300+ RespOrgs.  We are Certified Responsible Organization (RespOrg) authorized by the FCC's SMS Toll Free National Database Administrator for the Management of Toll Free numbers.  In the universe of 300+ RespOrgs, Worldlink is one of only a handful of RespOrgs and Service Control Point operators that are authorized to directly connect to the SMS main frames in Eagan, MN and Salt Lake City, UT.  While there can be no guarantee by any RespOrg, the possibility of converting your number reservations to acquired status by us is extremely good.

Question:  If 844Capture.com is so reasonably priced compared to other vendors, are you a less qualified and capable vendor than them?
Answer:  That’s a great question.  Absolutely not!  Due to our reservation volume, we are very pleased to pass the cost effectiveness along to you, our customers.

Question:  Will there still be 844 toll free prefix code numbers available after the code opening?  And how may I obtain them or any other toll free prefix codes?
Answer:  With over 8,000,000 new 844 toll free numbers available soon, there will certainly be many remaining 844 numbers.  The 844Capture.com website will still be available for your use.  This is the same situation for the 888, 877, 866 and 855.  The 800 code is the oldest and most in demand and the supply is short.  However, some disconnected toll free numbers become available at midnight every day. 

Question:  How fast can my new 844 toll free prefix code number become activated? 
Answer:  Immediately!  As fast as we capture/secure your new 844 toll free number - OR for that matter any toll free number with prefix codes such as 888, 877, 866, 855 and 800 - we can immediately activate it and direct the incoming calls to any telephone number in North America.
