WDW phone numbers?

[briarberry]

I know someone will have an answer for me! When I called last week to book our room for August I used the toll free number and got right through. I keep seeing only the 407 number on these boards. Is the toll free one not common knowledge? I am also watching for AP rates so should I use the 407 number when trying to apply the rates (if I get lucky) or am I reaching the same place with both numbers.
I don't mind using the 407 number but I have read horror stories about people being on hold forever so I figured I'd use the toll free since it's available.
Thanks

What is the toll free number that you have? I have been left on hold for long periods and would rather not pay for the call ( considering I'm spending $5000 to stay there)

Sad but I knew that one off by heart too.. lol.. I looked at it and went yup that's the number...
I always got through right away on that # when others were on hold for a long time when the codes came out.
