Fongo is the service provider. They own and operate Freephoneline.jenom wrote:CCTS does not list Freephoneline as a "Participating Service Provider", however Fongo is there and Fibernetics too.
Maybe this is how they want to prevent a complaint from a FPL user ?

Fongo uses Fibernetics' network, and Fibernetics is the CLEC that provides numbers for Fongo.Fongo wrote: Is Fongo a CLEC?
No, but we’re good friends with one.
A CLEC (competitive local exchange carrier) is a government regulated classification for phone companies. Fongo has agreements with Fibernetics, a CLEC with a national telco network. These agreements allow Fongo to leverage Fibernetics' network assets and regulatory status, providing Fongo with a huge cost advantage over other VoIP providers. We pass these savings on to customers.
What’s Fongo’s track record?
Fongo has been providing free calling across Canada since 2009 under the name freephoneline.ca. We’ve powered millions of free phone calls and saved Canadians millions of dollars. In 2010, we launched our first partner brand – BudPhone – with Labatt Breweries. The team behind Fongo has a long history of offering innovative calling services dating back to 1997.
How are Fongo and Fibernetics related?
Fongo was formally spun-out of Fibernetics in 2010. Fongo and Fibernetics are now independent companies. That said, we really like each other.
