Unable To Place Calls From Android App? Area Code Substituted at RingOut!!!

Has anyone noticed this today? My assigned number begins with 437, and all my apps show this (Windows, Website, Android). However, when attempting to place any call from the Android app, my assigned number shows as beginning with 434 which is incorrect, and thus no call can be placed (the app endlessly spins on the "Calling RingOut number" as it cannot "ring out" to a phone number that isn't really mine.

This is pretty much... insane? Anyone else noticing?!?

FWIW, I've had the RC app on my iPhone for several years w/o problems. We also have several Android users and no trouble there, either. Even the desktop apps have been solid.

After un-installing and re-installing the Android app, this seems to have resolved itself, but I would appreciate an explanation before I can recommend your services to the CEO of the multi-million dollar company I represent. I hope someone reaches out with ANY sort of explanation. Are my employees expected to uninstall and re-install software daily? Weekly? What happened????????
