meh just get a google voice number. need one for all sorts of services.

GV numbers commonly don’t work. Somehow they are identified as a sort of virtual (VIOP) number.

while true in some cases, I've been pleasantly surprised at how often GV/etc are accepted.

another alternative (also minutes) is to use eSim, e.g. Google Fi - minutes to setup and many late model phones support multiple esims.
