If you know some code… there’s some neat things you can do.
I have a phone number (literally spells my name) and I can call it from any phone, after the first ring, I can type a code (which includes the number of days to be active). It registers the number I’m calling from as a forwarding number. If someone calls or texts my number, it gets forwarded to all registered phones. I can use a different code to make calls as well.
This is perfect for when I don’t have internet yet, or even a sim. I can borrow a friends phone, hotel, payphone, whatever.
The vanity number isn’t listed as a voip number (afaik) because it was originally my cell number and then I ported it to the programmable voip carrier (who I hate), but it works with banks, WA.
Costs: expensive, sometimes.
