I love that they have the option of paying as you go instead of a monthly charge. The customer service is excellent- there was some sort of error in payment (possibly having to do with routing PayPal through Apple Pay?) and customer service replied immediately and voluntarily opted to give me double the credits I paid for to make up for the inconvenience. So nice of them! I had to change my number because of a lady who would not respect my wish for her to text instead of call. She used to leave me tons of voicemails. I tried YouMail, which stopped the mail, but her number was unidentified so she could still ring me at any time of day multiple times. Now I gave her this number, and she is not able to call me at all, but we can still be in touch in case I need to tell her something.

I am leaving this review for the customer service more than the app. I only used the app one time and it does exactly what you would expect it to do. The only thing I did not like is it was not clear that I had somehow signed up for a monthly subscription that automatically charged my card $9.37 each month. I didn’t realize it until I had seen this random charge appear on my transaction history. I emailed the company to dispute the charge and they were AMAZING! They responded to my complaint very quickly and reimbursed me in a timely fashion. Please give these people a raise!!!

Didn’t Work as Advertised

The app claims it works for receiving verification codes which was why I downloaded it. I set it up, created the account, started the unlimited trial and went to use it on the Eureka app . . . Total FAIL!I didn’t bother trying it on any other apps figuring on the very first try it’s not likely I chose the one app it doesn’t work on. Disappointed… uninstalled it… posted a review, meanwhile the wealthiest tech company continues to exploit their customer base by using us apple fans as their free Q/A. God forbid they actually do some app vetting and verify at least what we download and install performs according to its claims {{{sigh}}} remembering when being an apple user meant you were part something different… now we’re just lining the pockets of ridiculously wealthy execs who have zero vision and only whose only real efforts of innovation are new ways for how to force their over priced tech into premature obsolescence.

Sorry to hear that the app did not work as expected. While your phone number can be used to receive verification codes, some services do not allow VoIP numbers to be used to verify accounts. We provide a trial period to allow users to verify whether or not the app is suitable for their needs. Your subscription can be managed through your Apple Account. More details on how to cancel your subscription can be found through this link: https://support.apple.com/en-us/118428

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE
09/20/2022

This app has by far the worst customer service ever known to existence. I purchased a subscription and yet there was times where my messages would not send at all. I would have to wait until the next day for it to send or it would just say “Error 37. Contact support for more information.” And so I do that. The only way you can contact support is through email. NO PHONE NUMBER OR ANYTHING. So while I’m in the middle of an important conversation I have to wait for an email which takes about a day. This has been happening to my account back to back three times. And twice in one day and it’s so frustrating. There’s no number. No solution. And it just keeps happening. And I spent $13 on this app. Don’t waste your money it’s not worth it AT ALL UPDATE IT HAPPENED AGAIN. SO THIS IS FIVE TIMES. THIS IS INSANE
