We kicked off our “Inside Scoop” series with NYC, so it’s only fitting we now jet across the coast to dive into Los Angeles, the most iconic city on the West Coast. 🏝️🌞 🌊 As someone who’s been in the “phone number” business for over a decade, I must admit I was pleasantly amused to […]

Ottawa 613 Day – Inside Scoop
So just in case you weren’t aware, tomorrow (June 13) is Ottawa, Canada’s 613 Day! It turns out that celebrating a city’s area code, similar to Atlanta’s 404 Day, is quite a trend across North America. As a company that sells local phone numbers, we’re certainly not complaining. If you’re a local and want to […]
Our cloud phone system has always allowed you to call any phone number globally while displaying your FlyNumber as the outgoing caller ID. This feature ensures you appear local, no matter your location or the device you’re using. With our latest update you can now make those same same phone calls while paying significantly less […]
So much going on as far as AI so I thought it would be fun to just plop all my thoughts in a blog post. I still remember my first computer, a 1990’s Compaq Presario (4000 series I believe).

Specifically, the misunderstanding pertains to the role and implications of port 5060 and its associated […]
Note: If you’re looking for a VoIP phone number to register an OpenAI account go to the bottom of this post. Am I the only one surprised that no ones’ figured out a way to incorporate “VoIP” phone numbers and “verification” with some sort of blockchain tech? Specifically the SMS verification, it’s not a technical […]
One of the standout features of our cloud phone system is the ability to edit the caller-ID for the phone receiving the FlyNumber calls (only when using VoIP). This comes in handy when you need to distinguish between calls coming in from different phone numbers. Imagine having a UK, Canada, and US FlyNumber ringing directly […]
