Are free New Zealand numbers private?

No. Free numbers are public inboxes, which means other people can view received messages. Use PVAPins private or rental numbers if you need privacy.

Why didn't I receive the verification code?

Common reasons: the app blocks public inbox numbers, the number is busy/reused, or carrier short-code filtering. Try another number, wait a bit, or use a private/rental number on PVAPins.

Can I use these for WhatsApp or Telegram?

Sometimes, but popular apps often block free/public inbox numbers. For better results, use a PVAPins private or rental New Zealand number.

Can I use free numbers for banking or wallets?

It's not recommended. Free inbox numbers are public and not designed for sensitive accounts. Use a private/rental number on PVAPins for higher privacy and stability.

What should I do if the number is already used?

Switch to a different number. If you're getting blocked repeatedly, rent a fresh New Zealand number on PVAPins to reduce "already used" errors.

Is PVAPins affiliated with any app?

No. PVAPins is not affiliated with any app. Always follow each app's terms and local regulations.
