Benefits of Using a Temporary Phone Number for an Internet Service Provider
When you sign up for service with an Internet Service Provider (ISP), like "GlobalNet," you must provide a phone number to create and manage your account. While essential for service, a temporary phone number can be a smart way to control the communications you receive from your provider.
Avoid Upselling and Marketing Calls
Once you are a customer, your ISP will often try to upsell you on other services, such as faster internet speeds, TV bundles, or mobile plans. A virtual number allows you to receive critical service alerts (like outage notifications) while shielding your primary phone line from a constant barrage of sales calls and promotional text messages.
Keep Your Account Secure
Using a virtual number adds a layer of security to your account. It de-links your internet service account from your primary phone number, which may be known publicly. This can help protect your account from being taken over through social engineering tactics that target your main number.
Maintain Your Privacy
A temporary number allows you to manage your internet service with greater privacy. It ensures that your primary contact information is not stored in yet another large corporate database that could be a target for data breaches. It’s a simple way to keep your essential services running while maintaining better control over your personal data.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, our numbers are specifically designed for GlobalNet registration. GlobalNet requires a phone number for account creation, and our virtual numbers provide a reliable way to receive the SMS verification code.
Yes, you can. SMSFAST allows you to rent multiple virtual numbers, meaning you can use a unique number for each GlobalNet account.
First, double-check that you've copied the SMS code precisely as it appeared in your SMSFAST account and entered it correctly into GlobalNet. Also, ensure the number you used is still active and within its valid time frame.
If the issue persists, the number might have been flagged by GlobalNet. In such cases, we recommend simply renting a new temporary phone number and repeating the registration process.
There may be a slight delay in network delivery at times. Please give it a minute or two.
- Request resend: On the GlobalNet interface, look for the option to resend the code. This often prompts a new SMS message to be sent to your number.
- Ensure you are actively viewing the SMSFAST interface for the specific virtual number you rented, as the SMS message will appear there.
If the code still doesn't arrive after a resend attempt, the temporary number might be experiencing an issue with that specific service. We recommend canceling the current number (if no SMS has been received, you typically won't be charged) and renting a new disposable number from SMSFAST.
