That's a bit hard to parse but it appears to also say, "set aside for toll
free" = NO
Sigh. If you match up the columns, it says ASSIGNABLE No, Explanation Set
aside for toll free, RESERVED No, Assigned No.
NANPA's own announcement confirms 886 (and 889) was eliminated from toll
free pool
I think you misread that 886 is reserved for TF. It was released from TF
reservation in 2003 and us currently unassigned so could pop up anywhere as a
new code.
If that is the case, you should tell NANPA. I just downloaded their NPA
database, dated today. It says:
They're definitely not possible across the country because long
distance calls only do the LNP lookup after routing the call to
the destination tandem. (That's the L in LNP.)
Usually this is because their numbers can't support nomadic 911.
It's more than that, long distance carriers couldn't
