Look, there are plenty of SMS services out there. Some are sketchy, some are overpriced, and some just don't work. PVAPins? Here's why I'd stick with them:
Instant access, no "your number will be ready in 24 hours" nonsense.
Clean numbers that aren't already banned on major apps
Works in 200+ countries (not just France)
You can rent for a few hours, a week, or a month, whatever fits.

Private dashboard so you're not refreshing some janky public page

Yup. Works just like a normal number plug it in, get the code, you're in.

If you rent one, yes, it's yours for the whole rental. The free/public ones are shared.

Nope. I've used them while traveling in other countries with zero issues.

Anywhere from 72 hours to 30 days, depending on what you choose.
Q: Is this legal?
Yeah, as long as you're not using it for shady stuff, you're fine.

Use it for instant SMS verifications.
