 [DATA] City found and where you called?

Here's mine:

I picked up the Phoenix, Arizona drop

919-866 was the "Contact Me" number
919-866 is the phone I have

Both point to Raleigh, North Carolina

Whatever theory you have for this probably goes to pot once you factor in the international phones. The London number to call was just a mobile phone number - that is to say not geographically specific.

In very short terms, the first 2 digits of a number here mean a lot:
01 or 02 are land lines, with area codes specific to cities etc
07 is a mobile phone number (obviously the phone itself has this, and our number to dial had this too)
08 is a special tariff, usually lower than regular cost, e.g. freephone numbers
09 is a premium rate number

I am the Chicago operative.
The phone is a 773 area code and the Call Me number is a 312 area code. Those are both Chicago area codes. 312 is usually reserved for downtown. I reversed look uped the Call Me number. It is a Virgin Mobile cell phone.

Mine was in Denver was a 720 area code, which was in the Denver area as well. And looking up the number... it looks like it was another cell number.

I guess my theory didn't hold up. It looks more like a small goof getting the right area codes to the right cities.

Sorry about that

[SoCalSteve]

any of you called the numbers since then?

I've used the phone once to call arcade aide, that's all.
Haven't heard back.
