If you are talking about a phone number, I believe that number is just used for movies and TV, not for personal phone numbers. Otherwise, they might give out someone%26#39;s personal phone number. yes no fictional prefix for the entertainment industry As far as I know, it%26#39;s a media-only prefix, and there is nowhere in the U.S. that uses it. yes. any number can start w/ anything! For a movie or any kind of entertainment purposes?
Yes.
For a phone number that someone will actually use?
No. If you are talking about phone numbers, then no, not exactly. It is usually used in movies,so that the don%26#39;t give out a nuber and people start calling it for no reason. Also, it is used for information in some areas. Try dialing 555-1212. only numbers over 555 . 5551 for instance . 5552 is another one , as is 5553 . Less often seen but valid none the less is 5554 but the least seldom seen is 5555 - you%26#39;ll be really lucky to see that one . 5556 and 5557 are just common and 5558 - well zzzzzzzzzzzzzz . 5559 on the othe hand is more complex and had the interesting property of being divisible by three . After that 55501 takes us into the five digit area that we all know and love 55502 being a particular favorite of mine . I%26#39;ll be back later - I need to feed my cat . I have seen 1-800 numbers that have 555 in them, but they can%26#39;t start with 555. Movies and TV use them because they are fictitious, so that they don%26#39;t get sued by giving out someone%26#39;s number to millions of people that are watching. Crazy, huh?! As far as I know, there is only one real phone number that start with 555 and that is 555-1212. It%26#39;s use as to look up other phone numbers.
