The following call types can be found in the CallType column in your BDR.

  • Interstate: A call terminated in a different state than the source phone number
  • Intrastate: A call terminated in the same state as the source phone number
  • Toll-free Origination: An inbound call placed to a toll-free number
  • Toll-free Termination: An outbound call placed from a toll-free number
  • Information: 411 & Information Services (operator) calls
  • 911: Emergency call
  • Wholesale Voice Origination (WVO): Inbound call made to Bandwidth customer's non toll-free number
  • International: A call terminated outside of the 50 US states and Canada*

*The classification of particular Canadian locations as Interstate, Intrastate, or International is determined based on your rate deck.
