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 Glen Ellyn virtual phone number?
Part of the Chicago metro
Glen Ellyn sits about 25 miles from Chicago and functions as part of that metro. A number with a 312 or 773 code stays recognizable to contacts, clients, or dates who live in the city itself.
630 and 331 travel to Aurora
Aurora, the closest large city, carries the same 630 and 331 codes as Glen Ellyn. A number here reads as local for anyone going back and forth between the two towns for work or family.
A 708 number reads local in Cicero
If your contacts skew toward Cicero, a 708 number matches what people there are used to seeing, instead of a code that looks out of place on their phone.
A 224 number is common in Evanston
Evanston phones carry the 224 code often. Choosing it gives you a number that fits in if you're calling or texting people up that way.
Fewer scam-looking calls on your main line
Residents across DuPage County and the Chicago suburbs have flagged unwanted calls that use spoofed local-looking numbers to the FTC. Handing out a second Glen Ellyn number for listings or dating apps keeps that traffic off your everyday line.

Glen Ellyn sits in the overlay served by area codes 630 and 331, the same codes carried by many phone users in nearby Aurora. Chicago's numbers run on 312 and 773, while 708 is common in Cicero and 224 is common in Evanston, all within the wider metro surrounding Glen Ellyn.
The region runs on Central Time, so a Glen Ellyn number lines up with anyone in Chicago, Aurora, Naperville, or the rest of the Chicago suburbs. Because 630 and 331 are overlay codes, they cover the same geographic area, one didn't replace the other, they just share it.
People in the area have reported unwanted calls to the FTC that often involve spoofed, local-looking numbers and unsolicited sales pitches, a pattern common across DuPage County and the broader Chicago suburbs.
