Why our Bangladeshi numbers work for imo when VoIP numbers don't
Many virtual numbers are VoIP, the kind messaging apps flag and reject. The numbers here are real-SIM, so imo treats them like an ordinary phone and the code arrives.
A VoIP or app number
imo flags most VoIP and app-generated numbers, so the code never arrives, however many you try.
The real-SIM number here
These run on real mobile-carrier SIMs, so imo accepts them and the code lands.
Beyond whether the code arrives, the options differ on price and commitment:
| Free temporary | App or VoIP number | Private 20-minute number | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it costs | Free | From $5 a month | Pay per use, no subscription |
| Commitment | None | Usually a month minimum | None, just 20 minutes |
| Money back if no code | Nothing to refund | Usually not | Yes, to your balance |
| Accepted by imo | Often already used | VoIP usually rejected | Real SIM, private |
| Best for | Less-strict sign-ups | Ongoing calls and texts | A one-time verification code |
