• Do toll free numbers eat up my minutes. 
  I only have 100 minutes Canada Wide.

It should, but it doesn't according to users on the limited minute plans. Not sure if it's a glitch or intentional on PM's part.

@Sheshe5   Yup.  TextNow is just like a regular phone but you call on the App.  They give you a new 10 digits number and people see you calling from that number on Call display.  You can also tive the number to friends for them to call you

Thanks for your time MM

Thanks I’ll test it out then look at my account to see.

Thanks LL   
I’m not tecky. But learning

I’m assuming TextNow is used as a phone as it is for a BC Government meeting

@Sheshe5 , it hasn’t used any of my minutes “yet” & I’ve been on that plan since 2019! However when I remember to, I use the TextNow app for outgoing calls!

@Sheshe5 

I recall it does count as part of your 100 minutes.

Why don’t you download the TextNow app and pick a number and make the free call through your WiFi?

@Sheshe5  By the plan details, YES

However, many tried and confirmed that it won't be using your minutes.   But again, PM can change back any time.  So, be mindful of that
