Depending on the International vendor, I see the codes 108, 109, 1129, 1139, 1171, 1172, 1173, 1178 being claimed as either valid codes in Canada or the US. I haven't found much information on them but I believe they are special in Canada dial codes for certain
services and would likely never complete if a call originated outside of the country.

<div>Watch out for those in ratesheets if your customers dial the 011 prefix for an International call, it may confuse your LCR/rating engine.<br>

If that is the case, you should tell NANPA. I just downloaded their NPA <br>
database, dated today. It says:<br>
<br>
