About the 304 Area Code

Area Code304
Established1947
Primary CityHuntington, WV
TimezoneEastern

For 61 years the 304 was the only area code in West Virginia, before the 681 overlay was added statewide on January 1, 2009 and ten-digit dialing became the rule everywhere in the state [1]. If a Huntington or Wheeling customer sees 304 on an incoming call, they know it is a neighbor and not a sales floor three states away.

Huntington has moved on from being a coal and manufacturing town. Health care and social assistance is now the largest employment sector in the city, anchored by Cabell Huntington Hospital and the Marshall University medical campus, with education and food service close behind [2]. On top of that, Alcon Research runs a 150,000 square foot plant in town making intraocular lenses with about 900 people on the payroll [3]. Plenty of clinics, suppliers, trades and shops orbit around all of that.

When a Marshall student calls back about an apartment, or a contractor dials from a job in Barboursville, a 304 number on the screen can be the difference between a picked-up call and voicemail. People are quicker to answer a number that looks local.

Cities Served by the 304 Area Code

Call Recording

Flip recording on per number for incoming and outgoing calls. Keep the audio on the account and pull up the exact moment a quote was given or a date was set.

Send and receive SMS and MMS from your 304 line. Receiving works right away. Sending needs the one-time 10DLC carrier registration, filed from the dashboard.

Mobile App

The iOS and Android app uses the same login as the dashboard, so an Alcon rep can take a 304 call from the road without giving out a personal cell.

Daily Billing

Billing runs daily against a prepaid balance. Add a user mid-month, pay only those days. Delete a user, the charge stops that day. No contract and no seat minimum.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I pick a specific 304 number?

Yes. Open the dashboard, search 304 and the list of available numbers comes up. You can filter by digit patterns and the one you pick starts working the moment you buy it.

Can I bring my current 304 number over?

Yes. Porting is handled from the dashboard with an on-screen signed form and your most recent bill. Most ports complete in 7 to 10 business days, sometimes longer depending on your current carrier, and the number keeps working on the old provider until it switches.

Do I have to be in West Virginia to use a 304 number?

No. The number lives on Tonet, not on a wire. A Huntington business that moves offices or hires remote staff keeps the same 304 line, and anyone with the login can answer it in the browser or the mobile app.

Will a 304 number work for banking two-factor codes?

A Tonet number is a VoIP number. Banking-style 2FA usually will not accept codes to it, and other app sign-ups are case by case, so do not count on it for that. A US SIM is the dependable route for verification codes.

How fast can we be live?

About five minutes. Sign up, add a card, make the first $15 deposit, and the phone system is built automatically. You pick a 304 number, record a greeting, and you can take a real call.
