Anyone knows a provider where I can sign up for a virtual Cypriotic number where I can receive smses (to be sent via email to me)?

I looked at Sonetel but they don't have mobile numbers for Cyprus and so can't receive any sms. 🙁
 
Please post if you find some provider. I had luck to get a SIM card‌ from Cyprus, but unfortunately I can't get more from the current source so I'm looking‍ for a source currently.
 
Thanks but this service does‌ not seem to provide any mobile numbers. I need to be able to receive sms.‍ Call forwarding is not what I'm after, I need an sms service.
 
Yeah it is a huge problem for Cyprus and some other smaller islands and counrties.‌ I'm in touch with someone that say he can sell me SIM cards for Cyprus‍ for €80 but I'm not sure if that works and how many he can send⁠ me 🙂 Will post an update if I get anything clarified.
 
I really needed to get going so I went for www.sonetel.com to get a virtual‌ number in Cyprus (call forwarding and answering machine). For pure sms I found www.proovl.com and settled for a number in another European country (no Cyprus).
So I now have two‍ numbers, one in Cyprus (no sms) and one outside of Cyprus (for sms). Not the⁠ best solution but workable at the moment.
 
For what service do you need the SMS service? I just wonder because you say‌ it works 🙂
 
Signing of documents with 3rd parties. They send‍ an sms with a code for verification. I get the code and input that into⁠ their system so they know it really is me who "signs". I could have used⁤ any number for the sms but for pure business reasons I wanted to keep it⁣ close to Cyprus. 🙂
 
Cyprus Sim Cards cost around 50EUR... I have someone in Cyprus who can just buy‌ them and send them to anyone who needs them. I don't think it is so‍ difficult.

Thanks!

Make a short holiday in Cyprus. Sim card costs in Cyprus for example on Primetel‌ Prepaid (named: pay as you go) are 2 Euro. No passport needed for SIM card‍ as far as I know.
 
proovl really sucks wasted 15 eur on that sh*t, so many verifications , expensive ,‌ poor features (miss links in sms until upgrading account to premium ) always show error‍ not user friendly .... didn't try the api yet - us is voip this why⁠ it's cheap .
 
Hi sir,
Did you manage to find someone for a Cyprus phone number that can⁣ receive SMS? Virtual one or a Sim Card anything?
 
Thanks for your reply, I did see this website, but they are out of stock for‍ Cyprus Sim cards. They do work outside of Cyprus?
 
Yes as I said, I bought them back in time, maybe someone else has ideas‌ to where to get such cards.
