As another poster already mentioned, SIP Broker directly supports USA (and I think also Canada) toll free already. Just put an * in front of your normal (11-digit) dialing, to call these numbers from your VoXaLot account.

Or, you can simply let ENUM do the trick, as e164.org has ENUM lookups for several toll free areas (including the USA) already. So if you like, you can just let VoXaLot's ENUM lookup feature (a feature that is enabled by default in VoXaLot dial plans) do its trick, and you can make toll free calls "for free".

NOTE: Any approach you take to toll free calling, can easily be automated with VoXaLot's dial plans. For example the attached image shows how I setup VoXaLot (for a relative of mine) to send all "1-800-number" calls to SIP Broker for free call completion (similar dial plan entries were also done for 888, 877, and 866 numbers).
