We are think about getting a 1-800 number for access network for our customers traveling etc.
What is the best way to keep track of this? Dedicate a T1 to that number? Just use ANI digits then bill the customer?
We use DNIS information to track which number is dialed...If our 888 number shows up, then we charge them for the "roaming" access. Oh, and BTW, if you get switched toll-free service, the 800 or 888 or whatever number won't show up directly. Basically you'll get the number showing up that the toll-free number is pointed to. What you'll probably want to do is get another local number pointed to your hunt group and point your toll-free number at the new local number...then when you see the new local number show up in your DNIS, then you know they dialed the toll-free number actually. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
