(757) Area Code Business Phone Numbers
The 757 has been Hampton Roads' calling card since 1996, covering Virginia Beach, Norfolk, and the whole coastal corner of the state. A local number here tells customers you know the Oceanfront, the shipyards, and the neighborhoods in between.

The 757 was carved out of the old 804 in 1996 to serve the Hampton Roads metro and the Eastern Shore. The region sits on one of the busiest working harbors in the country, home to the Port of Virginia, Newport News Shipbuilding, and more than 120,000 active-duty and reserve military members[1]. When a 757 number lights up a customer's screen, they know the call is coming from the coast.
Virginia Beach itself is a small business town more than people realize. The Diverse Chamber of Commerce and Industry recently ranked it the number three city in the country for small business[2], and the local economy stretches well past the beachfront into healthcare, defense contracting, and professional services. If you run a shop, a trades crew, or a service business in the region, you are in good company.
Tourism keeps the phones ringing on top of all that. Virginia Beach drew 14.3 million visitors in 2024 who spent $2.6 billion in the city[3], which means a lot of out-of-town folks looking up contractors, rentals, charters, and restaurants with a 757 prefix. A local number gets you picked up over the random 800 number every time.

What You Get With a 757 Number
Every feature comes with every plan. The only question is whether you pay by the minute or go unlimited.
Auto Attendant
Record a greeting, map the keys, and send callers to the right person or voicemail. Nest menus as deep as you need, and route differently for after-hours or holidays.
Call Recording
Flip recording on per number for incoming and outgoing calls. Recordings are kept for 90 days by default and searchable right alongside the transcript.
AI Transcription
Recorded calls get a searchable transcript with speaker labels, plus a short summary with the outcome and next steps. Voicemails are transcribed too, emailed with the audio.
Business SMS
Send and receive SMS and MMS from your 757 number, with the whole team sharing the conversation. Sending needs a one-time 10DLC carrier registration, filed from the dashboard.
Mobile App
The iOS and Android app signs in with the same login as the dashboard. Take a 757 call from the Oceanfront, a job site in Suffolk, or anywhere you have signal.
Daily Billing
Plans start at $10 per user per month, billed daily against a prepaid balance. Add a seasonal hire for the summer rush, pay only for the days they work, remove them when the season ends.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a 757 number cost?

Can I port my existing 757 number to Tonet?
Yes, and it costs nothing to bring it over. Most ports complete in 7 to 10 business days, sometimes longer depending on your current carrier. Your number keeps working with your current provider until the switch, so there is no downtime.
Do I need to live in Virginia Beach to get a 757 number?
No. You can buy a 757 number from anywhere, no US address or company required. If your customers are in Hampton Roads, a local number helps you get picked up and called back.
Will the same number ring everyone on my team?
Yes. Set up a ring group so a 757 call rings every person at once, or turn on Call Queue so callers wait with hold music until someone picks up. If nobody is free, the call drops into the group voicemail with a transcript emailed to you.
