Numbers from those countries
Why YouTube may refuse a free number
- The number is shared, so someone may already have used it with YouTube.
- YouTube can block VoIP numbers and numbers that many people have used.
- Codes, including account recovery codes, can reach anyone who reads this number.
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 YouTube, so it refuses the number.
- YouTube 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.

Frequently asked questions
Why does YouTube ask me to verify my phone number?
YouTube asks for verification before it unlocks some features on a channel. The code is sent by Google.
How many channels can one number verify?
YouTube limits verifications per number per year, and public numbers reach the limit quickly. If a number is refused, try another.
Is the verification code the same as a Gmail code?
Both come from your Google account, so this page and the Gmail page show the same Google codes.
Why didn't the YouTube code arrive?
YouTube may refuse a shared number or one it has seen before. Try a number from a country listed above, or a private number from $0.18.
Is it allowed to use a temp number for YouTube?
That depends on YouTube's own terms, which you should read. TemporaryNum does not help anyone get around an app's rules.
