Exhaust of Toll Free Numbers may Cause Allocation

Current toll free numbers are being used up so fast that there may be a need to go to an allocation option before the 855 code is released. The FCC is currently reviewing some suggestions of the SMS staff on how allocation would be done.  The last time allocation was needed was while waiting for the 888 code in 1996.
 
My best guess is the allocation will be done as it was last time; numbers were allocated on a monthly basis as a percentage of the numbers under each RespOrg entity, so our AU code will be allocated numbers based on our total quantity of numbers.  That is good for our clients because ATL is always within the top ten largest RespOrgs of the 350 RespOrgs, but then we will need to ensure that our clients have a fair chance from within our allotment.
