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 Verona virtual phone number?
One area code covers the whole Madison side of the state
Verona carries 608, the same code carried by many in Madison itself. A Ghost number with 608 reads as local whether you're texting someone in Fitchburg or across the metro.
Sun Prairie doesn't see you as an outsider
Sun Prairie sits on the far side of the Madison area from Verona, but it shares the same 608 code. Meeting someone from there or hunting for a room, a 608 number doesn't flag you as out of town.
Waunakee commuters keep one number for both towns
Plenty of people move between Verona and Waunakee for work. A 608 number stays consistent whether the interview, the sale, or the date is happening in either place.
Fitchburg is close enough to matter
Fitchburg borders Verona directly. Neighbors buy and sell to each other constantly, and a 608 number reads as local instead of like it's coming from out of state.
Middleton's office crowd expects a local number
Middleton, just up the road, is packed with tech and biotech offices. If you're applying for work between Verona and Middleton, a 608 number on your resume doesn't raise questions.

About Verona

Verona carries the 608 area code, the same code carried by many across the wider Madison area, including Sun Prairie, Fitchburg, Middleton, and Waunakee. One code covers most of this part of the state, so a Verona number and a Madison number look the same on paper.
Verona runs on Central time, along with the rest of the Madison area. Because the region sits under a single area code, you don't have to think about which code applies where, just which number you're using and why.
Residents across the Madison area, like most of Wisconsin, deal with their share of spam calls and unwanted sales pitches. Keeping a second number for selling online or dating means those calls land on a line you can drop, not the one your family and close friends use.
