Can I call a toll free number in the US from Japan? |
Travel Info I need to call into an audio conference in Texas while I am in Japan. They have an 877 number. Can I do that? Travel Tips Out in town, I couldn't do that unless I contacted an English speaking operator. Even then, I was charged. If you can, I'd try to use a phone from one of the many military installations if you want to call for free. Best of luck. Others It will not be a toll-free call. Yeah, you can. I don't understand the big deal. Buy a calling card. They are usually in machines near a pay phone. Dial the code and then the US number. It will prompt you telling you that regular international charges apply though! Which they do even if you call without a calling card. Toll free numbers, at least the 800 series, don't exist in Japan. You'll need to either contact an operator like KDDI and have them dial it for you, or if you have a PC you can try to Skype it. Either way, it's going to cost you something. Yes you CAN call...but it's not going to be toll free. It's an international call ! And it won't be free. Of course, you can call it, but it won't be free. Toll free numbers like 877, 888, 800, etc. are free only when calling in the US. |
