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. […]

          I can't thank you enough for your help and patience with me on the phone. You really helped guide me through what I thought was going to be a complicated event. It turned out to be so much easier than I thought it would be. Thanks again for all of your help.

          Thank you for the great service you provide and for the fantastic prices. I looked for the fine print to see where I was going to keep paying more money or where I didn't actually own the number, etc. Hmmmm, couldn't find it. I have purchased two numbers (one was available and one I was able to depend on you to get for me - which you did!) There wasn't any fine print - this certainly was a good deal!

          Thanks again,

          Awesome service. The second the credit card was processed, I received an email and before I could finish reading the email it was already ringing to my cellphone. Too fast to even describe.

          Thanks,

          The toll free number we just secured is going to be used for a networking service for real estate investors. We've always recommended that people get these kinds of easy to remember toll free numbers ... but we've never had a resource that makes it so easy to find one and reserve it. Thanks for creating such a fabulous service!!! I expect you'll be seeing A LOT more real estate professionals with custom numbers in the near future.

          Thanks again for everything.

          Your website made searching for and locating a toll free number really intuitive. No hassles, no intimidation, and the report on useful numbers allowed me to easily locate a number that fit my business' needs!

          Things just got better - once I selected the number it was "instantly"
          activated, and then followed the manual of how to do the transfer which was also painless!

          Outstanding Site and Service in this day of mediocre performance from most companies - I've passed along your site to some friends already!!

          I've had some pretty good things to say about you and your whole company in the past. I don't want to sound like a broken record, though, so I'll let my actions speak this time...

          Just ordered our 6th number from you. That's got to tell people that you are doing something right!
