Can I use Stickynumber phone forwarding to verify Ebay & Paypal?

[irfanullahkhan]

I bought a US Chicago phone number from Stickynumber.com and it is forwarded to my mobile. The number is +1773786**32 and it looks like a normal Chicago number. I can keep this number with me (have to pay $9.25 per month to keep it).

Is it safe to use this number to verify Ebay and Paypal?

Never heard of that service before but dont see how that would be a problem to use considering people use google voice which is a free service.

As long as the number works, you should be fine.

A bit expensive, but it should work.

The more expensive services are less abused. That number should hopefully be fine.

Cheap doesn't always equal better, also the OP is in another Country and probably needs a reliable phone forwarding.

Any account that I created with Google voice the last year has gotten that 0/0 selling limit.

Google voice tends to get accounts limited, as long as you don't use a free service you should be fine.

Thank you all.

Looking at the different threads, I thought people were not recommending forwarding numbers. But I guess you people were not in favour of Google Voice forwarding.

Thank you all for the great advice.

I find they usually work good for ebay call back but for paypal texts nothing works for me.

Hey OP, use the service and share your experience as most of us haven't heard of it, if it works for you then please share in another post.

There are a ton of free mobile forwarding services that work, make sure the service has a phone app to get around phone verification.
