Has anyone else experienced difficulty in setting up a toll free 800 or 877 type number? I am 8.5 hours in over 3 days and dozens of representatives none of which could help me put on hold or transferred to another dept or rep. Still trying...

@Temptr0f8 Ensure you have correctly contacted Bell Business Support & Sales. You can schedule or request a callback here.
When calling, Be prepared with:
-
The physical number you want the calls routed to (existing phone line, Auto-Attendant, or Hunt Group).
-
Business verification details (such as Bell Account Number if an existing customer).
-
Preference for either a standard randomly assigned toll-free number or a specific vanity number.
