Well, when a carrier goes out of business their numbers are returned to the pool. You MIGHT be able to get them if you talk nicely to the top dog (XO, Level3, etc), but probably not. I don't know exactly what you want for an answer..... if you don't want to park at a carrier where else will you park?

I have a number that was ported to Vonage about 7 months ago. Well the<br>CFO of my company did anyway. With the present Vonage situation he would<br>like to port that number away from Vonage. Is there a place, other than
<br>a carrier, to park a number ? He has had this number for may years and<br>would like to hold on to it.<br><br>I know I could port it to any number of carriers but don't want to move<br>it to someone I don't know will be in business tomorrow. BTW, what
<br>happens to the numbers a carrier has when they vanish ? I would imagine<br>it's a pain recovering those number from a customer point of view.<br><br>Any advice would be helpful.<br><br>alabun<br>_______________________________________________
