  -> You couldbe right, if this is the case the answer (according to the website), would be toll-restricted calls. Perhaps the asker has more info.
neutral  Cilian O'Tuama: acc. to Ferretti it means you "cannot place outward calls DIRECTLY", so maybe your suggestion is right. Ferretti adds = toll-restricted, not = non-restricted. :-)
