Big Berkey Water Filter Ad Phone Number Confusion?

There is an advertiser on some radio shows, Big Berkey Water Filters, and they have a toll-free number, not sure of the area code, but the exchange is 99-BERKEY. Yet they also have ads running at the same time with a different number ending with 8653 or something like that. My question is why use a vanilla number like the latter when you have "99 BERKEY" that just rolls off the tongue?

    Probably because people like the numbers for easy dialing and don't want to have to translate it. It's 877-992-3753 or 877-99B-ERK (EY is left off for dialing)
