## Review summary

Reviews largely condemn the app as unreliable and a scam. The top issues are paying for virtual numbers that never work: numbers fail to activate, expire, or are never delivered, sometimes showing timeouts. Many users accuse the service of taking money without providing any usable product. Refunds are repeatedly requested but not granted, and several posts note fake or non-existent customer support emails. Crashes and repeated bugs when trying to obtain a number are also common. Only a single positive mention exists, giving no basis for a broader positive consensus.

### Cons

- Purchased numbers do not work; activation fails or numbers expire.
- App is perceived as a scam; users report paying but receiving no usable service.
- Refunds are not granted or are difficult to obtain.
- Customer support is unavailable or contact emails are non-functional.
- The app crashes or has bugs when trying to obtain a number.
