Re: [tlug] Cannot receive confirmation SMS from Uber Eats? Anyone knows a fix?



For what it's worth I'm using iijmio and signed up for Uber eats without any issues.

Sorry I cannot help you more.

I have been trying for weeks to sign up for Uber Eats. The process involves receiving a confirmation code by SMS but I never receive the SMS. I am on Softbank mobile. I also bought two other SIM cards from MVNOs, one using the Docomo network, the other using the Au network, thus having tried all three networks. Neither can receive the SMS from Uber Eats.

Uber Eats customer service are absolute bozos, they don't have a clue what the problem is, go silent and eventually close the ticket for inactivity. I open another ticket, same result as before. Rinse and repeat over and over again.

I read some forum posts on the web where some folks suggested using a virtual SMS, but it seems that not all such virtual SMS services are suitable for the purpose of signing up with online services and they are quite expensive, so I don't want to have to try them out one by one to see which one works and spend hundreds of dollars/euros in the process.

Has anyone had this issue and been able to resolve it? Has anyone used a virtual SMS number to sign up with Uber Eats? If so, can you share which service you were using?

thanks in advance
