I am going to watch this video more than once planing on visiting Malaga next year and I hope it will be my future retirement so your efforts are very much appreciated and sincerely thanks a lot
Thanks for watching!
Hello Paul and Bea - I continue to enjoy all of your TH-cam posts as it has all been fun and educational. I am working on my non-lucrative VISA and hoping that I am finally able to move to Madrid by October this year. Your most recent post was truly very helpful - I had plans of porting my phone number to Google voice but am having second thoughts now; I will be looking into both Skype and Lobster - thanks again. Jing
I would still recommend Google Voice to you can keep your old number. It only happened to me and not Paul. But it’s up to you! ☺️
@@UnitedPublicServantAwareness Thank you, getting the FCC involved helped get a better response from them, from a real person and not just an automated email response.
Super helpful!
PS would love to see a current monthly cost of living video 😊
Aaaahh, yes I have been lagging on that! Thanks for the reminder, will have to do one soon! ☺️
Yikes, this is such a nightmare, sorry you’re still without your number! I ported my NY number to Google voice last September and have been fairly happy. I’ve only had 2 situations where I haven’t been able to use my Google voice number for authentications but luckily have been able to use email or have a family member in the US let me borrow their number to set up an account (the latter is not ideal though). I’ve thought about purchasing a cheap plan through Tello or Mint and porting my Google voice number back so that it’s a real cell number again. I would be so ruined without this number, which is attached to every account I have (and it’s a number I’ve had for 20 years)! Hmm, what to do…
Hold on to that number for as long as you can! 😊
Hope Bea's phone number comes back to her soon. Thank you so much for the informative video.
Yes I hope to hear from them soon!!! ☺️ I want my number back!
Great video. Very informative. That 12.99 Euros/month with Lobster sounds like a great plan. How clear is the reception on calls you make from Spain to the US? Apparently the Lobster network in Spain is Movistar owned by Telefonica which is the largest network in Spain! Can you pay them monthly with online banking or only by credit card?
Yes I love using it to call the US, there's no delays or lag during the call, and I don't have to ration the minutes. It's as if I was using a US sim. The payments are taken out automatically from my credit card but you also have the option to pause the payment or not have it on autopay. Don't forget to use our link. And I think they can mail the sim to the US/UK! www.lobster.es/referral/?referralCode=LoveBoffo
Super helpful video! Thank you! Can I port my US number into lobster while out of the United States?
Lobster will only give you a Spanish number. So you need to port to Google Voice, or Numberbarn, or Tossable Digits.
Did you ever get your number back?
Yes we did! th-cam.com/video/wGJ--GEWVx0/w-d-xo.html
Very useful info. I’m wondering if using a US VPN with Google voice would help, albeit a bit cumbersome.
Maybe? It’s just a hassle not being able to talk to anyone at all to explain it to me.
@@EverythingIsBoffo Yep! I had a nightmare situation with Google and I couldn’t access my decades long email for a couple of months. I had to contact TH-cam because , of course, our gmails are connected with that and many other accounts. You can imagine the nightmare. There was a glitch and Gmail wouldn’t help, although they knew that the glitch was causing problems for many subscribers. Then one day, voila! So, while I may look like a new subscriber to you, I’m actually a double subscriber. 😉
@@Ana-Maria-Sierra that sounds like a nightmare! Glad you got it back. Thanks for the double subscription! ☺️
Hi and thank you. I’m so in a dilemma now regarding do I port my ph # prior to my retirement in Thailand soon ??? I need the verification process with my credit cards etc. And, I want to communicate with family - at minimal- with texts. Again thank you both, any recommendations appreciated. 🙏
@@briansouza8528 yes port it before you go. We ported 1 week before and just got a prepaid sim for the last week in the US. If everyone you love has an iPhone you can still do iMessage and FaceTime over wifi.
OMG! So sorry that happened to you guys. And can you call 1800 USA numbers with lobster? Hope you solved the google mess. And happy new year!!
Yes we can call with Lobster, sometimes it works, sometimes no.
@@EverythingIsBoffo thank you guys
Did Paul not have the same issue with his Google Voice account?
So far so good for him. 🤫 🤐 🤞🏼
Hola, cómo están? soy Miriam de nuevo, quería saber si con la visa no lucrativa i have to purchase a one way ticket
Or purchase the round trip? Thanks
@@miriandescott7144 it’s up to you, depends on what your travel plans are. We bought one way tickets when we got approved.
@@EverythingIsBoffo thanks so much!!
Google voice sell unlimited
And what about if you access your Google Voice through a VPN connected to the US?
I guess that would be better. But I don’t normally use VPN on my phone.
