Hi!
you need to rent this phone number for a long time. Ebay is so sudden. You don't know exactly when it could call to you.

Keep the number for as long as you have the stealth account.

This was also my next question. Thanks for the specific answer! (:

The reason for keeping the phone active is to safeguard the account.

ebay/paypal may never call.
It is also possible to opt out of marketing calls. Note your account accordingly.


But, there have been instances where calls got made to disconnected numbers and users got suspended.

With an active phone number, it's one more thing you can control to appear 'real'

:sMan, ever since the day after I created my one and ONLY stealth (five months ago) and reading over and over again about GV is not good (it was reported working good at the time when I made the acct lol), this frightens me!

I am wondering if I am fine since the acct has so far been going very well.:)

Why not sub-out the phone number then okay? For peace of mind...but if it still works, dont need to change it unless broken /shrug
