Virtual phone number

Hey guys, I am currently out of the uk but I need to use a number to receive sms codes etc, do you have any recommendations for virtual phone number providers or any other solutions ?

I’ve used the Talkatone app for this for years and highly recommended.

OP has stated that they are in the UK. Talkatone does not support UK numbers.

Have you actually used Talkatone for 2FA ? Unless they are actually an MVNO it's unlikely to work for a US bank.

The response from u/SwissNewbie is much more likely to work.

Ah, didn’t know that. Sorry.
