The total and the gate
Strip the country code, sum the ten digits, reduce. The total must not be opposed to the owner's Origin or Master number; preferred totals are 1, 3, 5 and 6 with 5 as the default. Origin 8 avoids 1, Origin 6 avoids 3, Origin 3 avoids 6.

Repeats, zeros and the closing digit
No digit more than twice; 444, 777, 888 and 999 flagged; no zero in the last four, at position 5 or 10, never more than two, never closing 00; the number should not end on its starting digit. The closing digit is read for the calls it draws: 5 volume, 8 disciplined payers, 6 hard negotiators, 1 genuine prospects.
The two schools
The whole-number school reads the ten-digit total; the last-four school weights the closing four. Both are shown, with the per-Origin targets.
Frequently asked questions
How many favourable pairs are enough?
There is no fixed count; the pairs carry 35 of the 100 points and a score below 55 reads Weak.
Do I include +91?
No; the ten national digits are read.
Should the old line be kept?
Yes, for the customers who already have it; the new line takes the enquiries.
