TollFreeForwarding.com
Long story short: You buy a toll-free or local phone number in one of the many countries in which the company operates, then when people there call the number, it rings on your own phone — anywhere in the world.
Pretty amazing.

these guys are the pits, they have been taking my money for over a year and I have never used their service, when apparently I signed up for a free trial ... everyone should be warned about them so spread the news, unless I get my money back soon I will be blogging about them everywhere.

after one year of this complaints, seems that this company haven't learned anything. Bad thing I found this review after losing my money with them.
I registered with their "FREE TRIAL" and inmediatly was charged with $20.
Seriously, this company deserves be sued.

Signed up for a trial today. Thought it was a good idea. Wrong.
Big lag/delay issues. Also, started getting random wrong number calls at odd hours from foreign countries.
My advice is to avoid.

I was just about to sign up with TollFreeForwarding.com when I decided to Google them first to see what other people were saying. I’m glad I did, after reading this I’m NOT going to sign up.
Thanks for the warning!

Same story here... Bought a phone number from Portugal and it never worked! My credit was being used from who knows who since the phone number was not connected. Same rude person on the phone that don't help you at all. Well worst service ever... Stay away or lose your money.

Hi,
When i tried registering for the free trial, i got an error message, so i registered again. Later I got an email saying "as per the terms and conditions because you have two accounts with us, we are charging for your free trail offer" and i see a charge on my credit card. I'm not even sure how my other account got created when the system gave me an error when registering (and no confirmation number). I would suggest to stay away with them.

I subscribed to tollfreeforwarding.com for about 3 months. the number and redirections I've setup never worked. When I emailed them I never received any answer. I saved the best for then end though. When you ring them, you get some grumpy guy on the line that abused me and said "Big deal you've paid but you have to set it up yourself" when I told him that I always received an error message he told me "As I just told you, we have never had a problem with anyone setting up a number, it works fine"
So, if you like to pay a few months for receiving nothing but abuse in return, this is the company to go with!

I signed a client up for a Dublin call forwarding number which did not work. There was no ring tone and the line was crackling and dreadful. I am in the third week of ringing and emailing tollfreeforwarding to get it fixed, however I have been ignored and they say the line is ok, when it is clearly not.
I have used various companies offering call forwarding and this is by far the worst service I have ever experienced

Vonage offers the same thing. Too bad the prices kept going up, the the quality kept going down...

cool... I imagine this would be a pretty useful service for someone who does international business or travels a lot..
