Re:Show HN: Call Me Private Virtual Number Service by mattbgates on Tuesday December 12, 2017 @08:21AM (#15905377)
Hi HN, it is an honor to present to you a tool that I've been developing for a few months now. Call Me Private (https://callmeprivate.com) allows you mask your real phone numbers behind virtual numbers for better privacy. You can make and receive calls with local numbers from around the United States and Canada. You may also purchase toll-free numbers if you are in the U.S. and Canada, a must-have for entrepreneurs, startups, and all businesses.

Just some great features you can do with your virtual number:

* forward incoming calls to a specific number

* record incoming and outgoing calls

* turn your number into a conference room

* turn your number into a message-only system (text or audio mp3/wav)

* turn your number into a voicemail-only system w/email and text option

* block individual callers

* block all callers

There are no contracts, setup fees, or cancellation fees.

Looking for a SMS-0nly virtual number? https://textmeprivate.com

This is awesome, does it support international text?

Oops, found the answer myself, yes it does. Unfortunately not the country I was interested in though :(

snowpanda, while the Call Me Private (https://callmeprivate.com) may not be available in your country, there is Text Me Private (https://textmeprivate.com) which offers virtual numbers that allow you to send and receive text messages, which are available in most countries.
