Just use PayPal or ask a friend to pay for you. They might not like ccs from exotic countries.

Eh, why bother trying with no VPN if even with US VPN it has not worked out?
Solution that may work is:
- Dolphin Anty browser (free for up to 5 user profiles if I recall correctly)
+ resident proxy closest to the billing address of CC - i.e. https://www.piaproxy.com/

Ting was the cheapst a few years that i could find. Recently they raised their fees. But easy if you dont live in the us and need a number just for 2fa.
Thanks for this Johnny - this worked very well!
I took your suggestion to get a phone with eSIM and it's opened a world of possibilities where you don't have to carry around 10 old SIM cards
I'll just write a few lines bc I am in the category of people with a US number who do not have a US billing address associated with my Skype account.
When you go to the porting page on Tello, you must use a US address.
For non-US skype people, go to Settings>Your account>Billing Information︀
Go on Google Maps and find a random US address.
Change your billing info to︁ this address and then use it when filling out the porting info - change it︂ back to your actual billing address when everything is working so you can get any︃ refunds that skype owes you.
Like has already been mentioned, use 1xxxxxxxxxx for account number︄ (don't use the + sign), and 0000 for the PIN
Like Johnny mentioned, you need︅ an active plan and to turn on int'l roaming.
It ported my number in 10︆ MINUTES!
You have to fill out the E911 info (I used the same address) and︇ set up the voicemail.
In terms of eSIM providers, what are people using?
Airalo.com seems︈ to offer every country. Anyone have any complaints with them?

I've used Airalo across countries such as Antigua and Barbuda, Vietnam, Bosnia and Herzogovina, and their Europe plan across a bunch of others. Worked every time. Only a small issue in Antigua with activating on arrival and it might have been user error... Otherwise it automatically activates in arrival.
They aren't the cheapest around, however, I started with them and only use the ~ 1-3GB plans so a dollar here and there isn't a problem for me.

Have you checked this and used an iPhone IMEI to get the QR code as suggested?
