With yackie you have to add the number for a minimum of 3 months and they are about $3/month with $4 setup fee. The information is buried somewhere on their websites. The yackie DID is deactivated if you do not spend $5 in 3 months. Maxroam does not implement any minimum usage requiremen YET.

Yes, this is how I understand it, but none of these numbers have free incoming calls. Maxroam charges 21 eurocent for incoming calls to all of these numbers. Better to use a few SIP accounts instead - that will mean free incoming calls. It is no point having 50 DID numbers if all of them incur incoming call charges, let alone 21 eurocent or more, that is just too much.
As pointed out already, what I want is a +1 real sms number, not a +972, +44, +372 or other number.
It seems as if GLMobility.com offers a real +1 sms number, however the starter pack is $35 and shipping cost, UPS only, is $70 up to _$168_ ???? ARE THEY FOR REAL?? I emailed them about non-courier shipping alternatives, but they regretted they don't have that at the moment. Charging $70 is extortionate behaviour.. And I thought Ireland was a genuine rip-off country
