StealthAssassin | 07-02-2013 04:11 PM | I have had this problem in the past as well. I have tried no less than a dozen number forwarding services and NONE work for when you are trying to make a purchase or withdraw money and you get that "we're going to give you a call" messages. NONE!!!!!
Now, with that said, say you get limited and you get the simple "confirm location" requirement or if you get the "confirm location" requirement by some other means. Then YES using vumber, google voice, etc.. WILL WORK.
I repeat, if you get that "we're going to give you a call" message while trying to purchase something or withdraw money, you need a LANDLINE to bypass that or a paid VOIP (like Comcast). I have had a prepaid T-mobile number work before and some Trac Fones and the like can also work...no guarantee though. I have had a forwarding number attached to a PP account and got hit with the dreaded "we're going to give you a call" message. I figured no big deal...got a prepaid SIM for a T-mobile phone and added the new number. To my surprise and dismay...it said it couldn't "verify" the number. Perhaps the prepaid number has to be added when you first create the PP account???
Your phone number is cross referenced with a database in real time. Those number forwarding services WILL NOT WORK!
I hope this has cleared up some confusion. I'm sure there will be some here who will challenge this though, or even think "confirm location" and "we're going to give you a call" are one in the same. The latter is a whole different beast. "Confirm location" is the equivalent of verifying a number on ebay....which is essentially NOTHING...childs play if you will. |
