Users frequently praise Fanytel for very cheap calls, affordable numbers, and strong customer support that can recover accounts. However, the app is plagued by repeated issues: credits disappearing with no refunds, purchased numbers stopping work, and persistent login/sign-in problems on iOS. Several reviews label the service as scammy or untrustworthy, citing unresponsive support and credit withdrawals. Platform inconsistencies (Android vs iOS) and reliability concerns further undermine trust despite some positive experiences.
