Getting a 631 number

Two paths take you to a 631 number. With a provider, a new number comes with the plan: the provider assigns it at sign-up from the pool it holds in the code. Sellers list numbers they already hold, often ones with a pattern, at a one-time price. After that, you transfer the number to a provider.
