Great app
Love this app. It’s easy to set up and use. I really feel safer knowing that my real number isn’t being used when I have to enter a phone number online. Plus this app is transparent. They don’t hide anything…

Why choose a Batavia virtual phone number?
Part of the Aurora-Naperville corridor
Batavia sits inside the Aurora-Naperville area, so a lot of daily life here (work, errands, people you meet) runs through that wider corridor. A number that reads as local across Aurora and Naperville, not just Batavia proper, makes sense if you split time between the two.
A 630 or 331 number reads local across the Fox Valley
Both 331 and 630 are carried by many people in Aurora, right next door to Batavia. Choosing either code on a second Ghost number means it looks familiar to anyone in the Fox Valley, not just Batavia.
Picking 312 or 773 if Chicago is home base
312 and 773 are common among people in Chicago. If you commute in, sell to Chicago buyers, or split your week between Batavia and the city, a number with one of those codes can match whichever side of your life you're contacting.
224 and 847 for north side and suburban contacts
224 and 847 are carried by many people in Evanston and the areas around it. If your contacts, clients, or family lean toward that side of the region, a Ghost number in either code keeps things familiar to them.
Debt relief and impersonation calls are the local nuisance
Recent reports from residents in this area to the FTC were mostly robocalls, and the top complaints were debt relief pitches and callers impersonating government agencies, businesses, or family members. Keeping a separate number for listings, dating apps, or online forms means fewer of those calls reach your main line.

About Batavia

Population
26,555
Batavia doesn't have its own dedicated area code, but the numbers residents use most come from three pairs: 331 and 630, carried by many people in nearby Aurora; 312 and 773, common among people in Chicago; and 224 and 847, common in Evanston. A Ghost number in any of these six can fit depending on which community you deal with most.
The whole region runs on Central Time. Each pair of codes is an overlay, meaning 331 and 630 cover the same area, 312 and 773 cover the same area, and 224 and 847 cover the same area, so picking either code in a pair doesn't change who the number reads as local to.
Looking at what residents nearby reported to the FTC recently, most unwanted calls were robocalls or recorded messages. The most common topics were debt relief offers, followed by callers impersonating government agencies, businesses, or family members.
