As you may guess, retail tends to be busy between the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Finance and accounting companies see a significant bump in activity as the deadline for filing taxes approaches in the spring. And health insurance providers certainly ramp up their customer interactions during open enrollment sometime in the fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Believe it or not, telephone numbers have seasons as well \u2014 and it\u2019s been fun to observe them at NumberBarn. Let\u2019s take a look at the most common seasons we encounter and the typical solutions we\u2019re able to provide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Headed South for the Winter?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201dWhat\u2019s a snowbird?\u201d you ask. In short, a snowbird is a person who migrates from a colder, northern climate to spend the winter season in a warmer climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Popular migrations include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snowbirdadvisor.ca\/guide-mexico-canadian-snowbirds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Canada to Mexico<\/a> or anywhere in the northern US to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelawaits.com\/2558828\/best-places-for-snowbirds-this-winter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Arizona<\/a>. Seriously, who wouldn\u2019t want to escape months of rain, snow and cold in exchange for a sunny beach somewhere? It\u2019s kind of a no-brainer if you have the means and flexibility to pull it off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How can NumberBarn help? For those coming from Canada, avoid costly roaming charges on your cell phone by porting that Canadian telephone number to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.numberbarn.com\/number-parking\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">park with NumberBarn<\/a>. Then obtain a SIM card in the United States or Mexico for your mobile phone and forward calls to that telephone number for rates as low as $0.00\/min. <a href=\"https:\/\/help.numberbarn.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/1500000288381-What-are-your-rates-to-forward-calls-to-my-international-number-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more about our international rates.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or perhaps you\u2019re in the United States and just want a telephone number that\u2019s local to wherever you\u2019re wintering. That way you can feel just like one of the locals. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.numberbarn.com\/search\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Find a good one<\/a> on our website and forward calls to your cold-weather cell phone number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Studying Abroad?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The beginning of the fall and spring semesters at universities means tons of students are traveling thousands of miles away to study abroad. And if the old adage of \u201cpoor college student\u201d rings true, I can\u2019t imagine they\u2019d want to maintain their current cell phone plan in the United States or Canada AND obtain an international SIM card in another country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A trend we\u2019re seeing in customer support is that students are porting their cell phone numbers to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.numberbarn.com\/blog\/traveling-abroad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NumberBarn while abroad<\/a>. For the cost of a burrito or a froofy drink at Starbucks, they can forward calls just about anywhere in the world and send and receive text messages. When they return from their trip? Simply reestablish wireless service and port that number back to your carrier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the record, this use case doesn\u2019t only apply to students. We talk to customers every day, many of them <a href=\"https:\/\/nomadlist.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">digital nomads<\/a>, who are leaving the country for extended periods of time. And we\u2019re happy to help them keep their telephone number! That way they remain connected with their contacts and save money at the same time. <a href=\"https:\/\/help.numberbarn.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360026086773-Step-by-Step-Guide-Port-a-number-and-forward-calls-to-an-international-phone-number\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more about porting your number and forwarding calls to an international number.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Upgrading Your Device?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With the holidays nearly upon us, Cyber Monday promises to be the perfect time of year for a great deal on a new cell phone for that teen or tween in your life. A vanity number pairs perfectly with that new device! We\u2019ve found that many customers simply don\u2019t want to settle for the limited selection of telephone numbers from their mobile carrier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this matches your plans this holiday season, go the extra mile and combine <a href=\"https:\/\/www.numberbarn.com\/blog\/finding-the-perfect-phone-number-got-easier\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the perfect telephone number<\/a> with the perfect device for that perfect gift. With millions of numbers to choose from, there are bound to be many terrific options in our telephone number marketplace. And when you\u2019re ready to port that number, our team has <a href=\"https:\/\/help.numberbarn.com\/hc\/en-us\/sections\/4860475308183-Porting-to-Specific-Carriers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a series of articles with sage advice on porting to the major carriers.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless of the season, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.numberbarn.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NumberBarn<\/a> may very well have a perfect solution to meet your number needs. Perhaps you\u2019re looking for the perfect number to pair with a new mobile device. Or you\u2019re headed on an adventure and want to make sure your number\u2019s waiting for you when you return.
