I must have posted my reply in the wrong category before, sorry about that. I was just trying to tell everyone my best experience so far is with a company called Safercalls.com, I'm from Milwaukee so I needed a temporary number from here. They were able to give me one that I could just login to my account safercalls and then set the options like what numbers I want blocked, what prefix I want to show on my phone when a call is coming in so I know it's from my Safercalls number.
THE MOST IMPORTANT FEATURE is that I can make my Safercalls number my callerID when calling paypal, so then it automatically pulls up my account because it is showing that I'm calling in (using my temporary phone number). Paypal is not the only company that checks your number when calling in, but I know my credit card company does, and many other subscription based services I have do too.
Another note: I emailed them asking if they phone numbers in Illinois where my sister lives, and they said they can get them all over the U.S. even though they only advertise California and WI right now....check them out
If I change my phone number on eBay to a Trac phone number will that cause any red flag on my account? My current number is a private phone which will be terminated in Feb.
I would suggest the safercalls.com i was talking about, because I had the issue you did.
safercalls.com is 19.95 per month. A prepaid cell phone is cheaper if you don't use it much.
Has anyone experience with jconnect? (www.j2.com). There is a free service
that allows voicemail messages. Or is an area code meant to match a zip code?
(yeah, not in the US of A....only my spirit)
Modee, I think each custom voice message is linked to the phone number that you add to receive calls, when you chance the number your message will be deleted automatically.
Unless something has changed, I used trac fone and it did not work as of 2-08
I then switched the trac fone number and set up grand central and that did not work.
I still havent found a way to get PP verified phone call.
i got somewhat verified by paypal with grand central. the did verify my phone number, but since it did not match the area code that my confirmed assress was in they sent me a letter with a pin number within it. i would have to enter the pin number into my paypal account to get it reinstated. i told them the address was an old po box that i no longer have and i guess they waived the letter verification because i got my account back without having to do the pin verification.
Is it FREE servic for Grand Central? and I was wondering if it is ok for paypal verification to use my cell phone which i registered on Grand central and this number is on the blacklist on paypal or I have to put only landline on Grand Central when i register since i've known that paypal only verify with landline?? I'm abit confused...Please confirm if i only have to enter landline number for Grand central so i'll get another number then...Thank you!
grand central is free, and i used my cell phone through GC. liek i said it kind of worked for paypal. i still had to do the address verification because i used a cell phone.
With Tollfreeforwarding can you get multiple numbers for the $10 a month or is it $10 a month per number? I'm confused. I read the site but its still confusing me.
I know it sounds silly but I am thinking thats the best way to go if you can get a good deal on a couple of phones. But has anyone had any red flags caused my changing their telephone number on eBay? I am so afraid to change anything that is registered in the chances it flags something stupid in their system.
Look u can change ur number no problem.. The thing is when people change their number and address then list 100 Ipods...Get it
Your right Chris, i hope people are learning, you cannot go full blast on new accounts and expect them to last now. You gotta work them in slowly, lowball bid on stuff you dont want to win, watch some stuff, etc. look as though you really are interested in not abusing....lol
the toll free forwarding.com doesnt work, well it works it gives you a new number that directs calls to your own number but when ebay rings you the machine asks you if you are expecting the call if so to press i.e 1 and when you press 1 it doesnt register so it doesnt give you the verification code, i even tried it on the phone box over the rd and that does the same. im going to try the other one.
I have hundreds of cell phones I bought for a buck or two a box and I know most people have several working cell phones that take a sim card just lying in a junk drawer when their service renewed and came with a new phone can anyone tell me if buying sim cards for them would work I know at one time you could buy sim cards on ebay charged with so many minutes cheep and a number does it matter where the number is from? Can you have a TX address and a GA phone number? and someone said Land line how does ebay know if it is a land line or not?
