Research the number in a user database. 800notes.com is a user database of phone numbers, including toll-free numbers, which provides user-supplied information such as the content of calls received, who owns numbers, frequency of received calls and more. Enter the toll-free phone number in the box toward the top of the web page, press the 'Search' button, and review the results.
