NYMobile announced the nationwide expansion of its wireless service, now offering affordable, personalized phone numbers backed by T-Mobile’s leading 5G network.

Through a multi-year agreement with T-Mobile, New York Mobile customers enjoy full access to the country’s largest and fastest 5G network. As a next-gen MVNO, NYMobile puts personalization at the forefront — allowing users to choose phone numbers that reflect their identity, profession, or brand.

For just $5/month, customers can claim standout numbers — from iconic New York area codes like 212, 718, and 917 to unique national combinations like 305-305-TANS or 234-500-5678. With a deep inventory across all 50 states, the platform offers a wide range of vanity numbers, repeating digits, and brand-friendly options.

“New York Mobile is bringing fresh energy to the wireless space,” said Dan Thygesen, SVP of Product, Partnerships & Growth at T-Mobile and head of Wholesale & Innovation. “Their creative approach to personalization and user experience aligns perfectly with what modern wireless customers are looking for.”

At the core of this offering is the company’s “Your Number, Your Identity” initiative—a novel approach that connects personal or business identity with communication. From names and birthdays to catchphrases and industry-specific keywords, New York Mobile empowers users to claim memorable and functional numbers.

Why the 212 Area Code Is So Iconic

The 212 area code is more than just a number — it’s a badge of identity, influence, and New York legacy. As one of the original area codes from 1947, 212 phone numbers have become a status symbol in business, tech, and culture. In fact, owning a 212 number today instantly signals credibility and connection to the heart of the city.

Fortunately, New York Mobile (NYM) makes it easy to get a 212 phone number, even in 2025. With flexible plans, instant eSIM activation, and nationwide 5G coverage, NYM gives you the tools to claim your spot in NYC’s telecom history.

The 212 area code covers Manhattan, the cultural and economic core of New York City. Historically, it was one of the first area codes ever assigned in the U.S., and over time, it became a symbol of prestige. Whether you’re running a Wall Street firm or a SoHo design studio, holding a 212 number can elevate your image instantly.

In a recent interview on the Boon of Wireless podcast, Gio Perone, co-founder of New York Mobile, discussed the company’s innovative approach to wireless services. He highlighted how New York Mobile empowers customers by offering personalized number selection tools, instant eSIM activation, and affordable service on T-Mobile’s 5G network. Perone emphasized that a phone number is more than just digits—it’s part of your digital identity.
