Default switching phone numbers

I have a legit prepaid sim card that I use for Paypal and ebay.After a couple weeks or a month down the line is it safe to switch over to a virtual phone app like google voice, would that cause any flags?

Default switching phone numbers

I created a ebay/paypal stealth account with a pre paid sim card, would it be fine to switch over to a app like text now after verifying both ebay/pp accounts? Would that raise any flags? I am assuming it would be fine to go on settings and change the primary number for both ebay/Paypal to an number from text now which I would confirm after receiving the verification code.

Before doing this I just want to know if that would be fine, thanks in advance for everyones time and help.

It would be a red flag to do this right away, ebay/pp are very sensitive to new accounts

A prepaid sim to prepaid sim would likely be okay. But prepaid sim to reused phone number from an app is asking for a suspension

After read some threads i'm afraid it's not a good idea to use google voice app.

Ok got it, how many days or weeks would you recommend waiting until switching your number to a free texting provider like text plus?

Of course, the ebay and Paypal account will be verified but again as you mentioned since they are brand new accounts it might set a flag on the accounts. I just want to experiment with this to see if I would have any luck, but how many days would you wait minimum to change the number, Have any forum numbers had any success with this particular case. Thanks

2 days delay is hardly worth pushing for a response due to the weekend.

Probably 3-6 months of regular non-risky activity would be doable for a switch. Personally, I don't deal with free texting providers since 2010 or so

We already told you not to do it. You'll get your account suspended.

like others say, the answer is never

with stealth, you get what you pay for

free and easy = abused = suspensions
