Get yourself a 912 number
A 912 number is reached by two routes. When you sign up, a provider assigns a new number with its plan, picked from the numbers that provider holds in the code. Sellers post numbers they already hold, often ones that follow a pattern, at a one-time price. You then transfer that number to a provider.
