VAPI not allowing me to create any US #

It looks like you're encountering the error message "This area code is currently not available" when trying to create a Vapi phone number with the area code 415. This error typically indicates that the area code you're trying to use is not supported for direct creation on the Vapi platform. Here are a few key points to consider: - **US-Only Support**: Vapi currently only supports the creation of phone numbers with US area codes. If you're trying to create a number outside of this scope, you'll need to use the Import Phone Numbers feature to bring in numbers from providers like Twilio or Vonage. - **Limitations**: You can create up to 10 Vapi phone numbers per wallet, and they are free of charge. However, if you're hitting this error, it means that the specific area code may not be available at the moment. If you need a number from a different region or if the area code is not available, I recommend checking the Vapi dashboard for available area codes or considering importing a number from an external provider. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask! 😊 Sources: - [Error Message: "This area code is currently not available"](https://docs.vapi.ai/free-telephony) - [Importing Phone Numbers from External Providers](https://docs.vapi.ai/phone-calling)

@cw @rooinek @altmbr We receive limited numbers in rotation from telephony, which may take some time to obtain the phone numbers for the area code if all are used. However, the issue has been fixed. If an area code is not available, you will be suggested alternative area codes.

@Shubham Bajaj will VAPI let you buy numbers again in the future? All the videos I've seen peoplee were able to

Looks like this is still an issue? Trying to get any number. Anyone have any workarounds?

@rooinek Yes for sure without a doubt.
@Danny You can try now. We've received more numbers.
