Excellent experience using Sonetel
Updated: Nov 18 2024SummaryI use Sonetel to be able to have a USA phone number while being abroad in Central America, which was not possible with prepaid SIM cards that don't have roaming outside the USA (except Canada, Mexico, etc).
So far Sonetel has performed beyond my expectations & I'm happy with the service.PositiveI found the initial setup to be very easy & the process to get your new phone number working was very smooth. After initial setup the functions of receiving/making calls & SMS was what I expected & haven't found any issues so far.
NegativeSince this is a virtual phone number in the USA, I can't use apps like WhatsApp to communicate.
