Hello All,
I hope you are enjoying "La Semana Santa." Buy your groceries before it is too late!
I am dealing with a business in the U.S. that requires a U.S. phone number so that I can receive SMS messages for 2FA (two factor authentication). Well, I do have a U.S. number, Google Voice. But they won't accept that because they say it's not a real U.S. number because it's a VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) number,
When I Google "obtain U.S. phone number" they are all VOIP or they say they are NOT VOIP but when I investigate further, they say they are "virtual," which I think
is the same thing.
Can anyone recommend a service (paid, no problem) that will be regarded as an authentic U.S. number from which I can receive SMS messages? Now that I think about it, I don't even know if it's possible as my Dominican phone number is associated with my Claro SIM. I both cannot find a service and I'm also a little confused about the relationship between having a U.S. number, providing I can find a "real" one, and how that relates to receiving an SMS on my Dominican phone.
Thanks!
