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 Booneville virtual phone number?
Back and forth to Tupelo for work
A lot of Booneville residents work, shop, or see family in Tupelo. A 662 number reads as local to the contacts you're calling there, instead of showing up as an unfamiliar out-of-state code.
One code, a lot of northeast Mississippi
662 isn't unique to Booneville. It's carried by many people across northern Mississippi, so a second line on this code blends in with the numbers your neighbors and contacts already recognize.
The 662 area code specifically
If you're choosing a number for a second line, picking 662 keeps it tied to this part of the state rather than a random area code from somewhere you have no connection to.
A town of 9,367 notices a strange number fast
Booneville is small, with a population of 9,367. In a town this size, people tend to screen calls from numbers they don't recognize. A local 662 number is far more likely to get answered.
Keeping calls to Tupelo contacts on a separate line
If you're reaching out to employers, landlords, or clients in Tupelo, a 662 number lets you keep that traffic on a line you control, apart from the number your family and friends already have.

About Booneville

Population
9,367
Booneville sits inside the 662 area code, the same code many residents in Tupelo and across northern Mississippi carry. It's the single code tying this stretch of the state together rather than something split across multiple codes.
Booneville runs on Central Time. Because 662 is an overlay covering a wide area, a number on this code reads as belonging to the same broad region regardless of exactly which town the caller is in.
Residents in this part of Mississippi, like people across the country, report getting calls from numbers they don't know and don't want. Keeping a separate number for anything public, like listings or classifieds, is one way to keep those calls off your main line.
