How can M800 Toll Free improve my business?
Successful businesses today know they have to build and retain strong connections with customers, wherever they may be. Toll Free numbers can be accessed locally and are free to the caller, which means people make calls more easily. DID calls are charged at local rates and can always be dialed from mobiles and from abroad, unlike toll free numbers in some countries.

How is my monthly package fee calculated?
It depends on your monthly plan and the number of minutes you use. Look at the Pricing Page to see monthly pricing, including basic minutes and additional per minute rates.
The "Remaining Minutes" in your dashboard is the purchased and estimated available call minutes for your Toll Free number based on your monthly package fee.
You may always upgrade your plan to have more minutes for your number.
Back to top
What if I use more than my monthly minutes?
If you use more than your monthly minutes allowance, your additional per minute rate will be based on the type of number and pricing plan you choose.
You will need to top-up your number's "Remaining Credit" in order to ensure your calls are never cut short when you use up your monthly minutes.
You may choose to top-up manually or set up auto top-up by selecting how much "Auto Top-Up Amount" you want to be debited in your credit card and select the "Credit Limit" to determine the amount that the "Remaining Credit" needs to meet before the auto top-up is activated.

When paying by credit card, I get the message "transaction failed", what should I do?
Here are steps you can take to resolve payment issues:
• Verify the payment information entered for your order. If you used a saved payment method already on your account, you may simply need to update some of the information. If you entered a new payment method, make sure you entered the number and other information correctly.
• Submit an alternate payment method for your purchase. If you are unable to resolve the payment issue with your bank in a timely manner, you are always able to change the payment method on your purchase to another card.
Contact your bank to resolve other payment issues even if:
• You've successfully used the payment method on a previous order.
• You have funds available in your bank or credit account to cover the order cost.
How can I troubleshoot failed payments?
To protect your security and privacy, your bank does not provide us with information about why your payment is being declined. Because of this, you most likely need to contact your bank directly to solve most payment issues.
Sometimes credit card authorizations fail because of an incorrect expiry date or a mistaken digit in a credit card number. If you have saved credit card information in your Account Settings, check to make sure the information is correct and then re-submit your order. If your billing information looks correct and your order still fails to authorize, contact your credit card provider for further assistance, or place your order again using a different credit card.
