    Updated: Sep 23 2026

    I tested the system and my phone calls didn't go through, but they still charged me saying they did, their app isn't the easiest to navigate and could be improved

    Summary

    Amala, the Sonetel rep was very helpful and responsive in answering my questions and better explaining how their system works.

    Thank you!

    Positive

    This has been a great way to maintain a USA telephone number while working and traveling in many corners of the globe.

    Negative

    VOIP numbers are not recognized by some organizations and that is, at time a problem. Not a Sonetel problem but a user problem nonetheless.

    Essential Tool for Running a Global Agency from India

    Date: Apr 23 2026
    Summary

    Sonetel has been a vital part of my business infrastructure. It allowed me to establish a professional presence in multiple countries instantly. It’s reliable, affordable, and perfect for founders who need to handle international outreach without a massive overhead.

    Positive

    Extremely easy to set up international phone numbers. As someone running an agency with clients in the UK and Canada, having local numbers is a game-changer for credibility. The pricing is very transparent, and the call forwarding works seamlessly without any noticeable lag.

    Negative

    I would love to see even more local number options.

    Summary

    I am happy with the service because I have a working phone at an affordable rate. I probably won't go back to my former carrier.

    Positive

    The phone service works well and all I need is the app on my phone. The agents were with me every step of the way and made the verification process go smoothly. I needed a working when I was abroad as my current provider didn't allow roaming. I highly recommend the service, it's affordable and works well.

    Negative

    The verification process takes a few days but it's worth the way. Overall I'm happy with the service.

    Kind, quick, attentive assistance

    Date: Sep 07 2026
    Summary

    I am pleased with the service. It was very helpful when I needed to call 800 (U.S.) number and be kept waiting online for a long time. I am still a new user and have not tried this service fully. I look forward to exploring the service more. Thank you.

    Positive

    Very helpful and provided well-experienced knowledge patiently. The assistant patiently kept in touch with me when I could not solve the problem quickly. It was helpful that the assistant gave me several options to try out. It was comforting that I could personally get to reach the assistant. Inexpensive communication tool.

    Negative

    Time difference. I could not contact or reach the assistant immediately, but we can’t do anything about this.

    It takes a while (more than a minute) for a caller to wait to finally reach other party, when I try to call. And, in my case, I have to call several times to get my line connected.
