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 Roessleville virtual phone number?
Albany Right Next Door
Roessleville sits at the edge of Albany, and a 518 number keeps you looking like part of that metro when you're renting a place or meeting someone nearby.
One Code From Troy to Schenectady
The 518 area code is carried by many people in Troy and Schenectady too, so a Roessleville number doesn't stand out when you're dealing with folks across the river.
Niskayuna and Cohoes Ties
Family and friends often split time between Roessleville, Niskayuna, and Cohoes. A 518 number is one everyone in those towns already recognizes.

Plenty of Roessleville residents work across the line in Rotterdam. A second 518 number lets you hand out a work line without giving up your personal one.

About Roessleville

Population
11,518
The 518 area code covers Albany and is carried by many people in Schenectady, Troy, Rotterdam, Niskayuna, and Cohoes, so a Roessleville number fits right into that same shared code across the region.
Roessleville runs on Eastern Time, and 518 acts as an overlay code for the whole Capital Region, meaning towns on either side of the river share the same code instead of splitting into separate ones.
Residents across this part of the Capital Region report a steady stream of unwanted calls and texts, which is part of why many people keep a separate number for anything public, like a marketplace listing or a dating profile.
