I have two landline numbers that came with my internet contract but I don’t have a phone connected to the modem. So whenever your scenario happens to me I just give them one of my real landline numbers. I’ve tried calling myself and you can actually hear it ringing as the caller but no one will ever pick up lol

I once signed up for something that required separate home and cell phone numbers. Some shipping service or something. And it wouldn’t let me put the same number for both. Like come on, nobody is paying for landlines nowadays. I ended up putting my parents’ phone number for the home phone (which they coincidentally just got rid of this week.)

(AreaCode) 867-5309 is your friend in this and for random “Insert your phone number for the rewards program” things.

fun fact: most phone companies do not allow that phone number to be given out due to too many people calling it as a direct result of that song.
