US Phone Number for Uber Registration?

PixelNomad

Hi all! I’m trying to register an Uber account in the U.S. for a short stay I’ll be doing there, but the app doesn’t accept my local phone number from Europe. I’d prefer not to go through the hassle of getting a U.S. SIM just for this. Is there a way to get a US phone number just to receive the verification SMS from Uber?

Yep, totally get your situation — I’ve been there. You should definitely try Grizzly SMS. They offer a
virtual phone number USA service that’s tailored exactly for this. You can select the country and the service (in this case, Uber), pay a small fee, and get a number that’s ready to receive the SMS instantly. I’ve used them multiple times when registering for U.S.-only services, and it always worked fast and reliably. Plus, there’s no personal ID needed
