Ask HN: How does Nextdoor verify phone billing address matches home address?

I'm curious about the technical implementation behind Nextdoor's address verification process.

"To verify your account, your phone plan’s billing address must match the address you used to join Nextdoor."

Does anyone know how they actually accomplish this?

pavel_lishin•8mo ago
I wonder if they don't, and just accept that having a phone number is Good Enough to let someone onto their site - helps cut down on bot registrations, I'm sure.
toomuchtodo•8mo ago
Vendors exist to get enriched data from phone numbers via API call. “Phone|mobile number intelligence” is the search query to use.
