A system and method that enables callers to dial a subscription code
instead of a telephone number to reach a subscriber of the subscription
code. The system includes a lookup table that associates the subscription
code with the subscriber's telephone number. The system also uses a
routing device that is in communication with the lookup table. The
routing device is adapted to receive calls that were initiated by callers
using the subscription code. When a call originated by a caller using the
subscription code is received by the routing device, the routing device
reviews the lookup table to retrieve the telephone number that is
associated with the subscription code. The telephone number is then used
by the routing device to terminate the call to the telephone number.
