# Reply to the regulatory reviewer

`POST /v1/phone-numbers/{id}/remediate/reply`

Post a free-text reply (with optional file attachments) to the reviewer
on a number awaiting remediation — for asks the structured form can't
express (e.g. "is this personal or business?"). Attachments are stored by
us and their links are added to the reviewer's comment thread (the
carrier's number order takes no loose files). A reply to a comment-style
ask moves the number back to "in review"; a reply on a formal decline is
supplementary and you must still resubmit the fix. Requires text or at
least one attachment.
