@mbb11 @BKNS27 @Chalupa_Batman I was able to pick the last 4 numbers of my second account. It appears that it is no longer an option though. There used to be a window when picking numbers that you could enter the last 4 and it would try and give you a number that matched. Both of my accounts share the last 4 numbers and I didn't have to spend time refreshing page for new numbers. I would ask a CS rep if it is possible. All they can do is say no. Contact them below...

Unfortunately, you can only pick numbers that are available when you pick a new number.

My TextNow number took me 2 months going through a group of 3 numbers at a time for the last 4 digit same as my parent’s number.

Hello @mbb11 

There really is no way to get that number. When you sign up, you can go through a list of numbers and it has those last 4, there you go. But you can't request it.

Another option you can do is go download Fongo TextNow and a few other VOIP apps and play with those till you find the last 4 digits. If I remember correctly, you can't port the number for at least 90 days if memory serves me. Then after that, port it over.
