    DIALING RULES

    Canadian Calling Format & Rules

    Understanding these rules ensures your calls connect reliably.

    Always use country code +1

    Canada uses the North American Numbering Plan (NANP). The country code is always 1, and no Canadian phone number is valid without it.

    Format: +1 (Area Code) Local Number

    Canadian phone numbers consist of a 3-digit area code and a 7-digit local number. When calling internationally, always include the country code first.

    Mobile and landline formats are identical

    Canada does not distinguish mobile from landline by format. Both follow the same +1 (AAA) NNN-NNNN pattern.

    Toll-free numbers (1-800, 1-888, etc.)

    Toll-free numbers in Canada use area codes 800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 877, and 888. These are callable internationally from most platforms, but some restrictions may apply based on the service provider.

    No leading 0 or 1 before area code

    When calling Canada internationally, do not add 0 or an extra 1 before the area code. The format is +1 followed directly by the area code.

    • Test your connection 10–15 minutes early to ensure the service is working.

    TROUBLESHOOTING

    Common Issues & Restrictions

    Solutions for call failures and connection problems.

    Call won't connect

    Verify the phone number format is correct (+1 followed by a valid Canadian area code and 7-digit number). Confirm you have an active internet connection. Check your browser settings to ensure microphone and speaker access is granted. If the issue persists, wait a few moments and retry.

    Poor audio quality

    Audio quality depends on your internet connection speed and network stability. Switch to a wired internet connection if available, close other bandwidth-heavy applications, and move closer to your router. Call during off-peak hours to reduce network congestion.

    Toll-free numbers not connecting

    Toll-free numbers (1-800, 1-888, etc.) are sometimes restricted for international callers. Try calling the business's direct line instead, or contact them through alternate channels to obtain a non-toll-free number.

    Can't hear the other person

    Ensure your device's speaker volume is turned up and not muted. Verify the other person's microphone is working. If using a computer, check that the correct speaker output is selected in your browser or system settings.

    Browser compatibility issues

    Sayfone works best in modern browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. Ensure your browser is up to date and JavaScript is enabled. Clear your browser cache and cookies if you experience persistent issues.
