Regular phone companies can’t get what they can’t see

It takes a lot of work to dig deeper and see the numbers in disconnect. That’s why no other phone company does anything other than the simple surface level check to see if a number is available or not. Unfortunately since the good numbers get gobbled up within seconds of coming out of disconnect, regular phone companies never even see or have a chance to try for the best numbers. They quite simply can’t possibly win the race if they don’t know it’s running or when and where it starts.

    How often do you update the data? Like when it says any day now etc?

    Thanks
    Mark

      It depends. Some are changed daily, but some are in a different status that doesn’t have the date as readily available so those are only able to be updated monthly. If you backorder it we give you an exact date. Don’t expect to be able to get them after they come out of disconnect, any more than you’ll be able to get a good .com by waiting for it to be returned to the available pool and get it for $8. You don’t get good dot com names that way any more and you aren’t going to get a good toll free number that way either. The big phone companies are asleep, but the sharks never sleep and they don’t let anything slip through. I wish it were that easy. We would get more than 50% of the backorders people are paying us money to get!

        [...] 2. Regular phone companies won’t show you disconnected numbers because they only look at what’s currently in the available pool and good numbers get taken within a second or two of coming out of the disconnect period so regular phone companies never see or show them. [...]

          Testimonial 848 out of 1983

          I first looked at Mr. Quimby's website several weeks ago and learned all I could about toll free numbers. I was frustrated to learn that the speculation on toll free vanity numbers was similar to the speculation on domain names. I did plenty of other research, but the information I found here was not only accurate, but it was the most accurate and objective information I was able to find anywhere. The look-up service was invaluable in guaging my options, and when the time came to purchase a number, the service was activated in seconds. The most trouble I have encountered in setting up my business has been dealing with the telephone company. If only they could be as informative, prompt, and simple to use as Mr. Quimby's service.

          Sincerest thanks

She was so helpful and informative. My new number was up and running within an half hour!Gourmet Baskets and More
