Telephone area codes limit....?

Question

Many within the telephone industry feel we will eventually run out of area codes and telephone numbers. How many different area codes are currently available? What would you suggest to increase the number of telephone numbers?

Answer 1

the number of telephone numbers is increased everyday.  Area codes are added, telephone numbers are added to go with it.

Its not about creating phone numbers, any one can do that. its about how much the switchboards can handle. They can only provision so many phone lines.

Here is a comprehensive list, there will be more added this year and next.
