But that last link is God's living proof that an 800 number can be set up so that if you press 555EATMYDICK 7 times, that you WILL be getting billed for it. Hence.... No.... they are not always free.
Yes they are always free, you can't be transferred to a 1-900 number after calling a 1-800 number. The most they can do is give you the right other number to call. And, what the heck is 555EATMYDICK - that's no 800 number ;-)
