Calls tend to drop off after a certain time, but besides that I appreciated the service. It wasn’t until today where when trying to access the application I was prompted with a message stating that my account was suspended due to "suspicious activity." A ridiculous thing to occur being that I have barely made 5 calls using this application since paying for the subscription a little more than a month ago. I suggest downloading any other app but this. The developers and or team don’t even take their time to respond to customers in a timely manner. **Developer response:** Dear user, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you’ve faced with your account being blocked. This is certainly not the experience we intend to provide. We understand the frustration it causes, especially when it impacts important activities. Please reach out to us at support@2ndtextingnumber.com with your subscription details, and we’ll investigate the issue thoroughly.

Best regards, ### 1/5 — scam on free trial *2025-11-15, version 1.3.2* Phone number did not work on telegram. ### 1/5 — Arnaque *2025-11-09* Tu paye un abonnement de 10€ par mois avec 3 jours gratuit et EN PLUS tu dois payer 1€ pour pouvoir envoyer des messages et/appeler ?? C’est quoi cette arnaque ? Si vous voulez forcément que les gens payent ne parlez pas « d’essai gratuit » puisqu’il faut payer !! C’est plein de pub et ça marche même pas tant que t’as pas payer !!

I haven't received any response from customer service after sending four messages. What's more, messages aren't coming through, and the phone doesn't ring when calls come in...

NO FREE TRIAL *2025-10-21, version 1.3.1* Do NOT pay for their plans! The three-day trial offered is NOT real! My card was charged immediately after signing up for the free trial, and on top of that, the app doesn’t let you use it until you “verify” with a government ID, which they only even let you do if you pay ANOTHER $0.99 to VERIFY. ABSOLUTE scam app! Illegal false advertising- do NOT pay!!!! ### 1/5 — A fuire j’ai payer et rien ne marche ! *2025-08-22* J’ai pris tout les abonnements possible rien ne marche c’est de l’escroquerie !! **Developer response:** Cher utilisateur,Nous sommes désolés d'apprendre votre expérience.
