It's also extremely cheap

Wow, $0.04 is cheap! That gets you 40 minutes with an Indian number. I'll have to try this.
HERE'S ONE TO NOT USE. CRYPTON.SH HAS BECOME A SCAM. I have been personally scammed by them.They used to be good for UK or Czech #s and still accept XMR, but now many #s don't work and they no longer respond to multiple customer service inquiries. AVOID!!
@Unkn8wn69, thanks for the link. I hadn't heard of this particular SMS service. it's hard to tell from the site if the long term rentals are VOIP or non-VOIP numbers on physical SIM cards. Do you know? Also, they advertise long tem rentals for $3/day (that's $90/month!), but at the bottom of the FAQ under "Additional Information" it says SIm rental is $0.52/day, which is much more reasonable. Also, their FAQ seems to indicate a max long term rental of 180 days. Have you ever used them for long term? And can you use the service to send SMS as well as receive? Can you confirm any of this? Thanks. I'm asking all of this because in my experience Google and banks SMS 2FA won't work with virtual numbers or non-VOIP numbers.
