 TollFreeForwarding Virtual Phone Numbers
I tried to get a new phone number from TollFreeForwarding yesterday and after I entered the payment information I got the message that they could not complete the transaction until I faxed them a copy of the Credit Card - front and back, no problem, and a copy of my Passport - not going to happen. Are they nuts?? I have used them before with a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name that matched up to the registration on my VISA that I was using. No problem. They can't possibly know that I am the same person who got a phone # from them last week. A copy of my passport?!? I would never give that to anyone and I obviously cannot give that to them for this transaction anyway. Do they require this for a reason? I am trying to think of what I did differently than the last time I bought from them. I have a $25.00 Visa Gift card from Gift2Go that I need to use because it does not have the right information to use with any eBay or PP accounts. I wanted to use it for something online so that I didn't have to worry about anyone asking for ID. Hmmm. I think that I will just stick to going to Target and buying really cheap phones that you buy minutes for ahead of time. I can get 60 minutes that are good for 3 months for $14.99. For $49.99 I can double my minutes and they never expire. This is cheaper than paying $10.00 per month for a forwarding service that I will probably never use. I just need to keep my phones labeled. After my first month with TollFreeForwarding is up I plan on canceling the service and getting another phone from Target. I will edit my eBay profile to reflect the new number and I am off the hook for a $10.00 charge every month.
