Get hold of a 717 number
You can get a 717 number in two ways. A new number comes with a provider's plan, and it is chosen at sign-up from the numbers that provider holds in the code. Sellers list the numbers they already hold, often with a pattern, at a one-time price; you then transfer the number to a provider.
