800
Complimentary call start
800 is an area code prefix for toll-free telephone numbers in North America, where the caller pays nothing and the recipient covers the cost.
The format became synonymous with customer service lines and commercial hotlines: Call our 1-800 number for assistance.
Later toll-free codes (888, 877, 866) work the same way, but 800 remains the most recognized.
