Sorry but in order to play the game...there are some things that you will have to invest some money.

1 Method is Tracfone + Google Voice, this will allow you to essentially get a total of 5 numbers (1 Tracfone, 4 Google Voice).

2nd Method is using a Virtual Phone Forwarding Service such as Vumber.

Third way is to get a few landlines going ...as uneconomical as that may sound...just an option if you're balling

If you use GV properly you can get up to 2 GV now. ( It has recently changed from 4 down to 2 ).

If you need more then that why not invest in your business?

For 10 dollars you can buy a tracfone.

That is cheap to have a working phone for your business.

I have trac phones and have stopped using them. I simply open GV accounts. After I verify I simply remove my cell as a forwarding number. But you must leave atleast one number in the GV account... so I use a burner number that doesn't work anymore but it works so I can delete my real cell number.

I Have over 20 GV accounts and simply log in and ad/verify my cell again. Then delete the cell when I am done. It is important to delete it... you can force the next GV by hitting "reclaim this number" but you can only reclaim so many times. So it's best to just delete...

of course Also change setting on GV so it doesn't state "looking for GV customer please hold" the screening is set by default , plus I change the out going VM for the person's name. When u get an message you get an email... I don't mind spending money but I enjoy not having to set up trac phones... I still have a few in boxes. They are still very useful for craigslist marketing.

If there is no such thing as a free lunch, what makes you think a free phone will be of use for ebay/paypal business?

Big risk of any 'free' number already been burned on ebay/paypal

Have to spend money to make money.

Think of that approach

If someone is looking for something that only cost 3.00 to verify and phone call then they are wasting their time.

3.00 for one phone call will return your money if you know what you are doing by the bucket fulls.

Many options exist on this if more is taken and search is done - some nice lists of unused fresh numbers can be bought for great prices

[Sandy D]

Some want to operate a business with no cost at all and that just is very few and far between.

No reason to be so cheap that 3.00 to 10.00 a month on a properly ran account cannot handle.

If 10.00 breaks the bank you are in the wrong business totally.

10.00 ( most are far cheaper ) is extremely cheap for operating a business expense.

register with 02 star trader as a sim reseller and get 20 payg sims a month for free. You can also sell them on eBay and get a fiver per activated sim.
