phone number is long distance

[NicoleS]

I just signed my son up for this service.  His phone number is considered long distance when calling him.  I was not expecting that.  Now his friends need to pay a long distance charge when calling him.  Is there any way around this?  Thanks!

@NicoleS i am glad it worked out for you

Thanks for your reply.  I live in a major centre so can get a local number.  I just messed up when signing up.

@NicoleS  where I live public mobile has no local numbers. It's like 45 minutes to 1 place and 55 minutes to the other side and those numbers are long distance from my calling area.  Only work around is get a local number thru bell/Telus / Rogers and then port it to his account

Thank you!  That was easy!  I must have put in the wrong number when I first signed up.
