It's often important to know some details about phone numbers you're dealing with. If a phone is a landline, wireless, or VOIP and the whereabouts of the phone often play a role in your workflow. When it comes to cell phones, this information is pivotal to comply with applicable laws and regulations.
By using Verify My Phone Basic, our customers can determine high level information based on various area code and prefix algorithms (NPA-NXX and NPA-NXX-X) we've developed that leverage multiple data sources which are updated on a periodic basis. Due to number portability and rapidly changing landscape of phone number assignments, this method is suitable for casual use -- to get a rough idea a phone may be a landline, wireless, or VOIP. Also knowing the likely geographical region and possible telecom carrier is often useful.
For mission-critical uses like cell phone scrubs required for compliance (the most common being TCPA), Verify My Phone Pro provides authoritative real-time information based on the actual 10-digit phone number. Because millions of phone numbers have been ported and tens of thousands of changes occur daily, various checks must be done to best identify the current telecom carrier and phone type.
It's commonplace for a number to have changed multiple times after the original area code and prefix assignment 714-555 (NPA-NXX) or 714-555-1 (NPA-NXX-X) but despite this obvious fact, many cell phone scrubs rely on this approach.
