North America has their own numbering plan, and Europe considered the option to create a trans-european numbering space. IMHO it would have been better to assign a "country code" or regional code, then a 3 digit area code, plus the last 7 digits for the whole world.
Example:
North America: +1.XXX.XXX.XXXX
South America: +2.XXX.XXX.XXXX
Europe: +3.XXX.XXX.XXXX
Central Asia: +4.XXX.XXX.XXXX
Russia: +5.XXX.XXX.XXXX
East Asia: +6.XXX.XXX.XXXX
Oceania: +7.XXX.XXX.XXXX
We all would have had an 11-digit phone number instead of the madness we have now.
In other countries you have area codes for mobile phone providers, and area codes that are either 2 or 3 digits. I just prefer the North American system where all numbers have the same amount of characters.
What do you think? I know that it's no longer possible and the internet will soon destroy the telephone service once for all.
I work at a small company which has never really established a numbering system for its plan sets. This can get cumbersome when you need to add a sheet in the middle of a big set. In the past they've used a convention like SP-1, M-1, E-1 to separate divisions for site plans, mechanical, electrical, etc., but that apparently had its own pit falls.
Looking to determine if there's an engineering organization that has developed a standard plan numbering system for our field (i.e. ASCE, AIA, ANSI, NAMBLA).
What does your company use and why do you hate it?
I know there was a change in the way telephone numbers were written and they no longer used mnemonics, but I’m struggling to find information on the area code that would have started the number. Im writing a book set in York, England, 1968 if that makes the question clearer.
Our daughter is traveling to SG on a VTL flight from the US and will have only her USA mobile. She will download the TraceTogether APP on that mobile. My question is: Will the SG TraceTogether app work in SG? Thanks
Bitch I came for the MOASS and I’m not leaving until I’m financially free
I've changed my telephone number and phone and I'm unsure how to recover my account so I can put it on my new phone and start mining again? I could not find any support topics either. Help would be greatly appreciated! I do not have access to the old phone or number either. Thanks in advance!
Hi all,
I received some questionable texts from my mobile contract provider saying that I requested for my number to be switched to a different provider. I received a text with a PAC code in it from EE, then shortly afterwards received a call from a witheld number, claiming to be an EE representative asking me if it was myself who requested this. I said it wasn't, and they then said they would sort it from their end and not to worry.
I received a further call from a mobile number I didn't receognise, again claiming to be an EE representative asking me if they could do anything to convince me to stay with the network. I explained it wasn't me who requested the change and I was told it was being sorted.
This happened on tuesday. The following day, my phone stopped receiving any service and I cannot use it for calls or texts and can only access apps via my home wifi. I called EE today who have informed me that the number is now registered with Vodafone and I have to pay a hefty early cancellation fee.
I, for the life of me, cannot recall whether I passed the PAC code over to either of the numbers that rang me, but I assume I must have done for them to be able to continue on with switching the provider over to Vodafone. I am pretty sure I've been scammed and have fallen for it in a pretty stupid way.
My question I guess is whether there is anything I can do, if anyone has any advice. And if I have been scammed, what exactly am I at risk of now that someone else has my personal phone number registered to another network? Is there anything I should change to avoid losing money or personal information in some way?
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.
Yes, he's an anti-faxer.
There is a telephone town hall scheduled for April 15 at 6:30 pm. Highly recommend everyone register so we can get our voices heard and pressure the government to improve their vaccination efforts.
Register for the town hall here:

Hi! I am the External VP of a university organization. A lot of our prospect sponsors provide telephone numbers.
We no longer use telephones in our residence. Is there any cheap promos or ways for me to call telephone numbers with my mobile phone? They usually cost 7 pesos per minute, and the org will not reimburse me for such.
Hoping for your suggestions. Thank you!
PS I also ask them for their emails but some really prefer telephone calls for whatever reason.
Hi, I canceled a dsl+festnetz contract with Vodafone/Kabel Deutschland, and got a better deal with them in my partner’s name. I would like to know whether imI could port the old phone number (same providers?) as its more a ownership transfer than a provider transfer? Any experience with this appreciated (plan to call them soon but I dont speak great German). Many thanks
I'm trying to create a a regex which validates telephone numbers.
I've managed to get this far: https://regex101.com/r/FsDbab/1
This now covers 90% of fake numbers, but doesn't exclude "07000000000" or "00000000000".
I'm thinking, if we disallow any zeros with 6 consecutive digits, that should solve the problem.
If this isn't possible we can look at alternative options with PHP. I can send you the full code I have on request.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
