I’m trying to get at least 3 U.S. VoIP/SIP phone numbers for residential use only on Android for under $60 USD/year total. As for my threat model, I’m trying to lessen my traceability from online randoms and data miners.
My requirements:
- Does not require KYC/ID verification
- USA phone number
- Up to $1.25 USD/month per phone number
- Dual functionality
- Voice and SMS enabled
- Two-way SMS and voice
- National mobile number
- Won’t block me if I’m using a VPN to connect
Preferences:
- Support receiving SMS from short codes
- Call encryption
- Call conferencing
- Call recording
- Accepts Monero, other crypto, Privacy.com virtual debit cards, or at least PayPal as payment
- Supported by Acrobits Groundwire
- Will only be making domestic outbound calls
- Doesn’t matter whether it can receive international calls
Disqualified services:
- JMP.chat costs $5 USD/month per phone number so it’s way out of budget
- MySudo doesn’t allow purchases on GrapheneOS (even with sandboxed Play Services installed).
- Hushed is expensive and SMS/call notifications aren’t very reliable on GrapheneOS (sandboxed Play Services is installed on the same user profile).
- VoIP.ms offers excellent pricing but requires KYC/identification.
Thanks for any help!
