I got my magicjack up and running and chose a Raleigh prefix. Unfortunately it appears to be long-distance, even from my Sprint cellphone. I can change my number once for free. Would a Cary number or a Selma number be a better option? I need schools and local (Garner, Clayton, Smithfield) doctors to be able to call me without dialing long-distance.
Yeah, he mentioned having a Cary number but did not give specifics as to why. So I sent him a PM the other day and have not heard back. You know how impatient I get.
Mine is 665 as well, I can call the magicjack line from my cell (464) locally but if I try to call my cell locally from my magicjack, I am asked to enter an area code. Weird.
We have a magicjack line also, and whenever we dial out using it we have to enter the area code. We haven't had any trouble receiving or making local calls.
That's because you're not using the local telephone system. You have to dial the area code for all calls through Magic Jack, but you don't have to dial 1 first.
