Additional services

Single nationwide number service
This is a service that automatically feeds calls made to a single common nationwide Freedial number to separate, predesignated inbound call centers (inbound station sites) depending on the origination of the call.
Wide-area agency service
This service automatically routes calls to another pre-designated inbound station site with the same toll-free number when the intended reception site receives a call while busy.
Wide-area agency service (between different Freedial numbers)
Like the Wide-area agency service, this redirects calls when one line is busy to a pre-designated inbound station site with a different Freedial number.
Reception site change service
This service automatically routes Freedial calls to a different pre-designated Freedial number.
Distribution service
This service automatically distributes calls received by the same Freedial number to multiple inbound station sites at a pre-designated ratio.
Calling charge limit service
By previously indicating the maximum total of toll-free calls to be received, or establishing an overall call charge limit, this service automatically limits call-receiving by playing a message saying that the inbound station desk is closed for all calls that are received after the limits have been exceeded.
Covering additional charges during call routing
This feature enables the subscriber to assume responsibility for additional telephone charges for the directed segment of the call when a call is routed to a different location due to busy lines.
Variable line quantity service
This service allows real-time changes to the number of lines in use, up to the number of subscribed lines, when users want to make changes in the inbound station organization that handles toll-free calls, such as by increasing or decreasing the number of operators.
Service to refuse unwanted calls
This service makes it possible to reject unwanted calls from a given number if that number is registered by the subscriber using the telephone keypad immediately after receiving an unwanted call on the Freedial line.
Network hold
When all Freedial extensions are in use, this service places further callers on hold in the network, and when extensions become available, calls are passed through in order.
Called number notification service
When a customer calls the toll-free number, this service first plays an announcement with the message, "connecting to the toll-free number 0120-XXXXXX"prior to connecting the call so the caller knows he/she is calling a toll-free number.
Called-number notification service (INS Net lines only)
Notifies recipient of the Freedial number dialed by the caller (using analog or INS lines).
Mobile connect service
Permits wireless phones (cellular, PHS, satellite phones, satellite car phone, marine satellite phones) to make calls to Freedial numbers.
Intelligent service
Provides partial call-center function (voice-response equipment, etc.) in combination with Freedial service network, making it possible to operate a "virtual call center" which allows distributed call centers to operate like one large, concentrated call center. Intelligent services are available with numbers in the range (0120) 950-000 to 950-999.
