Inside France, numbers are dialled with a leading 0; leave it out after +33.
Didn't get the code?
Free numbers are shared, so a code can fail to arrive for reasons nobody here controls:
Someone else may already have used the number to sign up to the same service, so it refuses the number.
Many apps can block VoIP numbers and numbers that many people have used, and every public number here is used by many people.
Some services only send codes to certain countries.
VoIP and non-VoIP numbers
A VoIP number runs over the internet. It is cheap and quick to issue, and many apps reject it for verification. A non-VoIP number belongs to a mobile carrier and is tied to a SIM card. Apps accept it more often, but none of them promise to.
A private number is used by you alone, so nobody else can read your codes or reuse the number.
You'll continue on app.privasto.com to choose a number and pay. The app shows whether a number is a virtual (VoIP) line before you buy.
