| | Ahhh, I see. It is just like Gmail used to be.... If anyone feels like being generous, share the love! ;) |
Wow, I already got my GrandCentral account! Signed up, and like 2 hours later I got the email. This definitely seems like the way to go for a free local phone number. Hopefully they don't start charging after the Beta is over. |
| DogFacedBoy | 01-19-2008 12:16 PM | Hopefully it'll work for me...I just signed up a couple of hours ago. In the meantime if anyone would like to offer an invite I'll be happy to share mine here once I get in. |
| ebayhateluv | 01-19-2008 12:25 PM | Hi-Fyi for all new comers; Its not left on Voicemail for ebay-with ebay-the Bot says either (if you are expecting this call please press the # sign) Or- please press number 1 etc... |

| ivegotinfo | 01-20-2008 09:03 AM | you can get more numbers from them in your account
i have a 1-800 number and 2 regular ones with them, and 2 more numbers with tossabledigits.
i got a really cool 1800 number, it spells out my name :)
i found a new company too, gotvmail or something. havent tried them but they look pretty big: GotVMail - Virtual PBX, VMail, 800 Numbers, Virtual Office, Toll Free Numbers, Voice Mail
and Toll Free and Local City Phone Numbers - Worldwide Virtual Phone Numbers, Call forwarding, www.jetnumbers.com |
| coolandcalm | 01-23-2008 12:55 AM | I got a number from tollfreecallforwarding to register a new account overseas; had it forwarded to my cell here in the US, but when they asked me to press "7" in order to get the code, it did not recognize that i was pressing 7. After 3 tries they hung up. Ebayhateluv maybe you can help me and anyone else having this problem out here? |

I recently listed my Tracfone number with eBay and PayPal on my ⊗⊗⊗⊗ account but they haven’t called me yet. So far so good?
Back in the day when my account was in good standing with both PayPal and eBay I remember getting upgraded to the PayPal Premier but before I could get upgraded I needed to receive that stupid automated phone call from PayPal, well they had my home number and was trying to call my home # but I forgot my home # was disconnected (non payment…sigh) so I ended up getting verified with my regular cell phone and they were cool with that. |

| ebay-sucks | 02-09-2008 05:28 PM | Tracfone did not work for me with PP, Tracfone did not work for me with Grand Central either for PP.
Does anyone have anything other then a landline that has worked for PP? |
| koalawash | 02-09-2008 05:30 PM | ebay-sucks,
So you're really saying that even the "real" tossabledigits numbers that had no extension, aren't working with eBay/Paypal anymore?? |
| ebay-sucks | 02-09-2008 05:38 PM | Do not know about ebay, I posted it didn't work with PP for me. |

Alfonso. http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/7286/mailsck6.jpg | Do you understand that virtual numbers are not working with PP right now? Unless it can be forwarded to a phone that will be accepted by PP, so far the only thing that seems to work with PP verification is a real landline. |
| koalawash | 02-09-2008 05:47 PM | Wow thanks.. I'm gonna have to find something else. |

| koalawash | 02-14-2008 03:24 AM | So, wait.. if you have a landline you can have any "disposable" number just forward to that and it should still work? |
| ebayhateluv | 02-14-2008 09:44 AM | Yes, this is the Best way.. PP calls work fine, with landline.. :) |
| Chris Hanson | 02-14-2008 10:08 AM | And dont call from a number that is associated with an old limited paypal account because Paypal will see your real number even if you use *67 |
