Hi, there! When you change your mobile number in the My Verizon app or with an agent, you can select the area code and prefix. The last 4 digits will be automatically assigned to you based on what's available. Once you change your mobile number or disconnect a line, that number goes back into rotation to be selected by another customer. The chances of retrieving a number that has previously been changed or disconnected is very slim, as it is most likely assigned to someone else. I hope this helps.
