Exploring Skyetel Toll-Free DID Numbers
Variety in Prefixes
Skyetel offers a wide selection of toll-free DID (Direct Inbound Dialing) numbers with prefixes such as 800, 855, 866, 877, and 888, along with international options. These numbers are delivered through three distinct types of facilities to cater to various business needs.
Facility Options for Toll-Free Numbers
#### Skyetel Toll-Free Service via SIP Trunks or Hosted VoIP
- **Cost-Effective Solutions**: By delivering 800 number services over SIP trunks, Skyetel eliminates the middleman, akin to a long-distance-only T1/PRI, thereby offering the most affordable toll-free rates.
- **Scalability**: Businesses can purchase as little as one SIP trunk and still benefit from the best rates, with SIP trunk toll-free rates starting as low as $0.014/min for high-volume users.
- **Hosted PBX Considerations**: While Hosted PBX providers might add a small fee for running 800 services through their switches, Skyetel ensures competitive rates for both wholesale and retail customers.
#### Skyetel Switched Toll-Free Service
- **Versatile Routing**: 800 numbers can be directed to existing analog POTS lines, whether at home or business.
- **Cost Implications**: Due to local phone companies taking a share for call passage through local service switches, switched toll-free services tend to be more expensive. However, Skyetel remains competitive with some of the best rates in the market.
#### Skyetel Dedicated T1 or PRI Toll-Free Service
- **Routing Flexibility**: Toll-free numbers can terminate on long-distance-only T1/PRI's or local service T1/PRI's, with options for one-way (inbound only) or two-way facilities.
- **Cost Variations**: Local service T1/PRI's, being switched services, incur higher costs due to local telephone company charges. However, some Competitive Local Exchange Carriers (CLECs) offer rates on local T1's or PRI's nearly matching those of long-distance-only options.
Understanding Rate Structures
- **Flat Rate TF Plans**: Local service T1/PRI's may offer flat rate toll-free plans as low as $0.016 per minute, depending on the carrier and call volume.
- **Long Distance T1/PRI Rates**: Long-distance-only T1/PRI's present varied rate options, with interstate flat rates starting around $0.013 per minute.
- **NPA-NXX Rate Decks**: Designed for high-volume users such as call centers, these rate decks are based on the originating area code and can offer significant savings on average costs.
