[SIPForum-discussion] ITFS Term vendor question

[qcorba]

Hi Nick,

TF doesn't mean free call. It's just called party pays.

So an ITFS number in Singapore would probably be terminated overseas. And
there is business agreement for the originating network in Singapore to
bill the terminating network instead of the caller.

Hope this helps.
