Inbound toll-free service routed over traditional PSTN lines. Available from USA and over 100 countries world-wide.

Choosing a toll-free service provider can be a critical business decision.  If your phones are not ringing, you are not building your business.  DOW Networks can provide toll-free  via traditional telephone lines (the PSTN – Public Switched Telephony Network) or even to a cell phone. 

DOW Networks can provide toll-free service to any location in the world and has a roster of over 70 countries from where we can provide International Toll-Free Service (ITFS) and Universal Free Phone (UIFN) numbers.

DOW Networks can also provide advanced call routing features such as time of day routing and call re-direct

International Toll-Free Service (ITFS) & Universal Free Phone (UIFN) Numbers

International Toll-Free Service (ITFS) numbers can dramatically increase your market reach and are available from over 70 countries world-wide. 

Whether you have customers calling from the United States, Europe, Asia or South America, DOW Networks provides the best combination of great quality, customer support and inexpensive pricing.
Universal Free Phone (UIFN) numbers are similar to ITFS numbers except with UIFN numbers, one number can be used from multiple countries (there may be a slight difference in the dialing prefixes).

Time of Day Routing

DOW Networks provides Time of Day routing to call centers throughout the world.  As an example, say a company has a customer care center in the USA that is staffed from 8 am to 6 pm and simultaneously has a customer center in the Philippines that is staffed for the remainder of the day.  DOW Networks can seamlessly re-direct the toll-free number calls to the appropriate destination at the prescribed time, or on request.

Call Re-Direct

DOW Networks provide Call Re-Direct options to customers with operations in multiple locations.  As an example, say a company has a customer care center in one location that is the primary recipient of toll-free number calls.  Should that customer care center receive its maximum capacity of calls, DOW Networks can re-direct the next call to an alternate site. 

Additionally, DOW Networks provides a web interface allowing customers to instantly re-direct calls as they see fit.  As an example, if a customer had a customer care site down, they could instantly re-route incoming toll-free calls to a second site themselves.

Resporg (Responsible Organization)

If you currently have toll-free numbers with another carrier and are looking to move or “port” those numbers away from that carrier, the process is a simple and seamless routine called the RESPORG process.  Since DOW Networks has its own Resporg number and direct access to the national SMS database, the process is quicker and more efficient than with other carriers who have to rely on third parties for the process. 

All USA numbers and Universal Free Phone (UIFN) numbers can be Resporged.  Most, but not all, International Toll-Free Service (ITFS) numbers can Resporged.  A DOW Networks representative can provide you with complete details.

Vanity Numbers

DOW Networks has the ability to provide vanity numbers for customers.  Vanity numbers can be important marketing tools.  An example of a vanity number is 1-800-FLOWERS.  

Vanity numbers are possible for USA toll-free numbers and Universal Free Phone (UIFN) numbers, but not for International Toll-Free Service (ITFS) numbers.  DOW Networks has access to a database of all vanity numbers and can research quickly the availability of requested vanity numbers.  A DOW Networks representative can provide you with complete details.
