BUT ANVEO CHARGES FOR SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111~#! Forget paying for tickets; I'm going to a provider that charges 25 times more for a phone number AND THEIR SUPPORT IS FREE LIKE IT SHOULD BE!
Okay, I am confused and maybe I did not state it correctly. The 2 Xs which I represented above are not the same number, so I guess 224-XXX-0000 would be more accurate.
What is the difference between a gold and a diamond number?
I have a free text app on my phone which gives me a free number with which to text from (and to) - Heywire.
I don't know anything about 'Gold' and 'Diamond' numbers, but I'd say mine is pretty memorable...
312-777-WXYZ (not literally that, of course, just not publishing the full number)
The last four digits aren't as easy to say for me, they tend to blend together, but everyone else says that the last four are easy to remember when thinking in terms of a jingle.

Pulled it out of MagicJack before they knew any better. I almost had 240-324-0000 but I stupidly let that 'Jack lapse and I couldn't recover the number.
Lol! I can still remember having rotary phones at my parent's house when I was a kid.
I did not realize this until I read it about a month ago, but that is why big cities like New York and Chicago got area codes like 212 and 312. Fewer pulses to dial so it took less time for an operator to connect the call.

COL (Crying out loud)! When I was a kid the microphone was at the top of a stalk on a pedestal; the ear piece hung on a hook on the side of the stalk; and there was no dial. When you picked up the ear piece you heard a live operator say "Number, please."

IMHO a gold number is a number very easy to remember, like ending with 0000. A diamond number is even easier to remember like 300-300-0000.
Not meaning to brag ... well, maybe just a little ... but ...
201-XXX-0000 grabbed from GoogleVoice before they were even called GV and recently transferred to one of my favorite providers. It just popped up during my initial sign-up.
201-XXX-9999 & 201-XXX-9999 wife's cell phone and my former cell phone number (different exchanges) ... assigned by ATT right after they took over Cellular One before the 201/973 Area Code split occurred. ATT actually called me to that we give back our original boring DIDs, because they were switching from the Hawthorne NJ to the Hackensack NJ rate center. A bit of 'sweet talk' and ultimately unfulfilled promise to send 'flowers and chocolates' worked quite nicely.
XXX-800-8000 free VoIP DID obtained after searching through pages and pages of available DIDs from one of our 'free' DID providers.
And those are just the top of the pile of 'gold numbers' in my collection. Oops, gotta go ... late for my psychiatrist appointment for treatment of my Polydidomania
Some decent numbers you've got there! In the UK cellphone number are in groups of 3 with all of them starting with a 07 (07xxx xxx xxx) I once managed to get 07 962 962 962. Sold it for £135 though its worth way more. I got a UK London number from a US provider 020 7101 7000 and ported it to a UK SP.
Just a few days ago, I got an even better one. A number ending in 5 zeroes in the 408 area code in Silicon Valley California. Not sure what I am going to do with it yet.
VoxOx (Southern California DIDs); CallCentric Free Phone Number (New York State DIDs but answer no to E911 option since you are outside US/Canada); GoogleVoice (U.S. DIDs); IpKall (Washington State DIDs forwarded to free CallCentric IP Freedom SIP URI such as 17772223334444 @ in.callcentric.com)
Unless you're an Ice Cream shop, it might not be such a brilliant idea to have that phone number at home.
My NYC number is not easy to remember, but for some strange reasons Spanish speaking people around North America prefer to call my number instead of the correct number when they want to talk with eDreams (a travel company). As my knowledge of the Spanish language is very limited I gave up trying to explain to the callers they got the wrong number so I decided to hire Lenny to handle all calls.
My easy to remember numbers (ending with three of four zeros) don't suffer from people dialing the wrong number.
