This has to do with the way prepaid phones allocate numbers. I seem to notice that the very cheap brands (that are very good for a hobby phone) also attract those that need a very trusty (ie: very cheap) burner phone. When you get prepaid, you have to give a zip code to mark a location and I think most of those generate a 630.

Seems that area code is just bad news when it comes to hobbying.  Lots of jack shacks and ripoffs.  
I don't hit BP very often, but when I do...if I see a 630 number, I just keep looking.  What's up with that?

its usaully true, I dont get it either I took the plunge and actually the past two providers I have seen had 630s and they have been great currently waiting approved reviews for them now. 50/50 like anything else in this hobby.

bp is a cesspool..630 is the worst of it..i avoid 630 numbers like the plague..i was ripped off once..i never make the same mistake twice..go somewhere reliable..bp isnt it..

Not sure what is going on with many 630 Area codes, Some of us like myself are legit and has
been around for many years, I only changed my number once since I have moved to Dupage
County but I must agree with you some phone now are the free government phones.
The best way to go around that also Google the number!
