Legal Notice: Estaqbel service is intended for lawful and legitimate use only. It is strictly prohibited to use virtual numbers for any illegal, fraudulent, or terms-violating activities. Users bear full responsibility for their use of the service. We do not encourage or facilitate any use that violates local or international laws or other services' terms.

Understanding Usage Types

For better understanding of how to use virtual numbers, here are the differences between various uses:

Legal and Legitimate Uses: Temporary registration on services that explicitly allow temporary numbers in their terms, testing applications for educational purposes, obtaining general non-sensitive information, protecting privacy on websites that approve this type of number usage.

Prohibited Uses: Banking services, financial transactions, government accounts, medical applications, any service containing sensitive or personal information, any use violating service terms of websites and apps, any fraudulent or illegal activity.

Disclaimer: We provide this service for lawful use only. Users bear full responsibility for their use of the service and ensuring their usage complies with local laws and other services' terms.

Legitimate Uses for Virtual Numbers

Virtual numbers can be used legally and legitimately in the following cases (provided the service's terms allow it):

Protecting your privacy when signing up for forums and general websites that allow temporary numbers
Registering for trial or educational services for one-time use
Obtaining general non-sensitive information from websites
Testing applications for development or educational purposes
Avoiding promotional messages from websites that approve temporary numbers
Other uses that comply with laws and service terms

Important Note: Before using any virtual number, you must read the service terms of the website or app and ensure it permits the use of temporary numbers. Using virtual numbers in services that prohibit them in their terms is a violation and may expose you to legal action.

Practical Examples of Legal Use

Here are some practical illustrative scenarios (always verify service terms):

Example 1: Newsletter Subscription

You want to subscribe to a tech newsletter once to access a specific article. Verify the website allows temporary numbers, then use a virtual number to avoid future promotional messages on your personal number.

Example 2: Testing Educational App

As a developer or student, you need to test an educational app you're developing. Use a virtual number to test the verification code functionality without consuming real numbers during development.

Example 3: Public Forum Participation

You want to ask a technical question on a specialized public forum. If the forum allows temporary numbers in its terms, you can use a virtual number to register and participate without revealing your personal number.

Legal Reminder: All examples above assume that the service terms allow temporary numbers. Users are responsible for verifying this before use. We don't encourage any use that violates service terms.

What If Messages Don't Arrive?

If you don't receive the verification message, try these solutions:

Refresh the page and wait a minute or two
Try another number from the same country
Choose a different country if available numbers don't work
Ensure the service accepts temporary numbers
Some services may take longer to send messages
Check that the number is still active on our page
Verify you entered the number in the correct format on the required website

Pro Tip: If you face repeated issues with a specific service, it may be blocking temporary numbers. In this case, you'll need to use a real number.

Privacy Protection Tips

When using virtual numbers, follow these tips to protect your privacy:

Don't enter real personal information when registering with a virtual number
Use a temporary email with the virtual number for maximum protection
Don't link important accounts or financial services to virtual numbers
Remember that messages are public and anyone can read them
Use pseudonyms instead of your real name
Don't save sensitive information in accounts linked to virtual numbers
Avoid using the same virtual number for multiple important services

Remember: The purpose of virtual numbers is to protect your privacy in non-critical situations, not to completely replace your real number.
