I live in Pennsylvania. I would like to get a 212 Area Code number for my iPhone with Verizon Wireless. I'm not looking for a fancy number. I'm looking for well a cheap and the lowest price. Here is what I tried. I tried several VOIP providers such as Vonage and I seen online they don't have any. I tried Voicepulse and they didn't have any. I signed up with VOIPo, and I emailed Customer Service, and they told me they don't have any, so I cancelled my VOIPo service. I emailed CallWithUs, and they told 212 numbers are out of stock. Even though I don't want VOIP, I'm only trying to get the number and than port it over.

I tried searching ebay and I didn't see anything. I only had this search come up on ebay All Categories

What else could I try? Please let me know. Thank you!

To my knowledge no one can get 212 area code nowadays, not even businesses.

I just posted the link I didn't actually read it because I could care less about an area code.
I thought you might be interested in the information, what happens after that is up to you to find.
