Obviously, anyone with a large number of DIDs does not need to pay any porting fees and will get a substantial discount with ParkMyPhone.com. Best Regards, Oren On Sun, Nov 1, 2026 at 12:34 PM Peter Beckman via VoiceOps <voiceops@voiceops.org> wrote:
The math --
Ron has 1000 phone numbers Ron will have 250 active
--> Ron wants to park 750 numbers <---
Reseller, already feeling excessive:
$8,000 per year (~$0.89/mo/nu)
NumberBarn -- $2.99/mo/no
$26,910 per year
ParkMyPhone -- $24/year/no plus $5 port in fee
$3,750 one time first year PLUS $18,000 per year
Ouch y'all...
Ron is looking to spend LESS than $8k/year to keep 750 numbers active and in their control.

numberbarn.com says $2.99/mo/no, I know people using them for a while.

Good Afternoon -
We are migrating from an on-prem Shoretel phone system to Zoom Phone.
Over 25 years ago, we were assigned a range of phone numbers 973-290-4000 <(973)%20290-4000> through 973-290-4999 <(973)%20290-4999> for our former Nortel Meridian phone system that we ported from Verizon to Windstream. Now, with Zoom, we expected to port these lines from Windstream to Zoom Phone.
We will probably have 250 or so of these lines active, but I was told by our reseller that Zoom could port the lines and park them for us at a yearly cost of over $8,000.
This seems excessive - I don’t want to lose the numbers we’re not currently using because we might grow departments or add more employees plus I don’t want another company to have a number that falls in between 2 of our numbers.
I’m curious as to what others who have migrated to Zoom (or possibly any other UCaaS, system) done in a situation like this.
Another thought was this - is there another company with whom we might be able to park lines and port them over as we need them?
