How much is your number worth ?

Have you ever received a call asking to sell your number ?

I'm not asking for opinions on my numbers , in general whats your views on golden numbers and how much do you think its worth , just pick a phone number you would really like to have. How much would you pay for it ?

20 -5 0 eur is the most i'd pay for a phone number. and then it would have to be something like 085-500000

but then I don't value that sort of thing as much as other people do. Like for a while goatse dot cx was for sale for 10,000 eur, the most I'd ever pay for it would be around 200. and thats only because of the traffic.

traffic is not something you want when buying a phone number.

There is a seller on Irish eBay selling a whole lot of gold, silver and bronze numbers. You can get a number like 2244000 for around 20-30 euro, and better numbers like 1000007 for around 200 euros.. So that is the price frame of reference I suppose.

It's worth as much as the person is willing to pay.

Personally i wouldn't jump to pay anything for a phone number unless i really felt it would help some home run business or something.

i got a golden number through o2's "name your number".

of course it does have the 086 72 part but what follows after that is easy.

so i wouldn't really pay more than 20 euro tbh

The resale of these numbers is frowned upon by O2 and is forbidden on Adverts.ie .(see Profiteering) .

I have had a bad experience recently where I purchased a Ready to go phone here , the seller gave me a SIM card in it and I duly put credit on it from time to time and used it as a business phone . Then last week the seller decided that he would like to sell it . As it was a number with a lot of duplicate numbers in it he decided that he would get €400 for it .

I have spoken with a manager in O2 about this situation and she informed me that they did not condone the selling of their numbers for profit , she also mtold me that they could and would disconnect any numbers if it could be proven that they were being sold for profit .

So OP where did you get these numbers , how many have you got and how much profit are you planning on making ?

sharkman: I don't quite follow.. You mean that you were not allowed to register that sim card in your own name, hence it was still property of that other person? He just "gave" you a free sim registered in his name without telling you about this state of the sim?

Yes , he had registered it in his GF's name .I presume it was to avail of free credit .

For a starter I would like to politely remind you that this isn't adverts.ie and users of this forum while I'm moderator can openly talk and discuss golden numbers , as long as they don't try and sell them on this forum.

I'm sorry about your experience on this situation , people buy and sell numbers all the time.

So OP where did you get these numbers , how many have you got and how much profit are you planning on making ?

Is any of these questions really any of your business ?

Now the next time you want to attack me or even question me do so , via a Pm and dont bring your references adverts.ie to this forum again! You asked to to take down my add I did , end of.

In this case all you need to do is contact customer care and explain the situation , they can track and check the usage of the phone to indicate that you are in-fact the owner of the sim card.

I did contact CC and while they could confirm the numbers I had called ,they could not transfer ownership to me as It was registered in someone else's name .

Sharkman - Someone gave you a SIM, you assumed they had only registered it to get credit, you then started to use the number and you're upset because the network won't transfer it into your name?

DundalkStephen - do you work for O2?

I never understood the thing where they would confirm recently dialled numbers. If I stole a phone I could ring a couple of numbers and then ring up and "prove" I was using it. Even if I had it for 2 years it still wouldn't mean it was my number.

I was upset because I called him and let him know that he had left it in the phone and he said it didn't matter and that I could have it. Now six months later after I had business cards made up and given the number to customers the number is cancelled , leaving me down both customers and cash !

Anyhow , my tale of woe is not the purpose of this thread and is now done and dusted . I'm down a couple of bob but much the wiser .

You told him he'd left this golden number in the phone and he said it didn't matter?
Did it occur to you at the time it might be registered to him?

You should really start a new thread. This one is over 6yrs old and the info in it is way out of date.
