SMSPool Reviews 

Trust me all of you, this app is a red flag. This is a scam app, I deposited approximately $30 into SMSPool because I needed an SMS verification number. I tried multiple countries/numbers, but I was unable to receive a verification code.

The most frustrating part is that I never actually used or successfully received any SMS service, yet my money is sitting inside the SMSPool account as balance. There is no normal withdrawal option that I can use to get my unused money back.

I understand that temporary numbers may sometimes fail, but customers shouldn't be left with money trapped inside a platform when the service they deposited money to use isn't working for their intended purpose.

I also discovered that some services have additional restrictions, which I wasn't aware of before depositing.

I would strongly recommend researching the refund/withdrawal conditions before depositing money. In my case, I paid approximately $30 and was unable to successfully use the service.

I am currently trying to get my unused balance refunded through support.

Great site, have used for plenty of numbers and not failed once. Just wish they reduced the prices back to original as for me, all prices are now around $0.30. Even so, cheaper than all those other scamy websites.

i swear, the service is so good and its all automated, i deposited with crypto and it went through flawlessly, no fees + no minimum too when i deposit with crypto.

the numbers work flawlessly and i get the code instantly.

Just used it. It's easy, just deposit something like $3 and then look for the service you want to receive codes from. They even provided a percentage of success rates for each country. After that, just make a quick order and wait. They said some numbers may take up to 3 minutes to activate, so I figured before then, they couldn't receive codes. So I waited for 5 minutes or so. It worked. And they accept Apple Pay. So I would recommend it.

After a misunderstanding from my side on their stock levels, the team were kind enough to process my refund.

Thank you

Terrible, they make you deposit money first. I did that, I try to order a sms that clearly said that was in stock and it says "not in stock try again later". So now they get to keep the money since it's already deposited and I have no idea if it'll be in stock or if its even real since they can't even keep an accurate count of their stock. Don't waste your time, find another site that can at the least keep stock count properly.

Edit: After spamming the order button, it gave me a number, and it doesn't even work! What a joke.

Attention, les numéros vendus pour Telegram sont souvent déjà occupés par d'autres utilisateurs (2FA active). J'ai acheté deux numéros allemands qui ne fonctionnent pas. J'ai contacté le support pour obtenir un remboursement, mais je suis toujours en attente d'une réponse satisfaisante. Très frustrant.

Service inexistant et support aux abonnés absents

Très déçu. J'ai acheté deux numéros allemands pour Telegram, mais ils sont inutilisables car la vérification en deux étapes (2FA) est déjà activée par les anciens propriétaires. Le vrai problème est que le support technique ne répond absolument pas à mes sollicitations malgré mes relances. J'ai payé pour un service non conforme et je me retrouve sans aucune aide ni remboursement. À éviter.

It's a Scam... They advertise they give 100% real non-voip number... Number are also Expensive...but when I use gmail creation it's blocks Me many times.... I use residential proxy... And Best method to gmail Create... So only the reason is if Number is Voip or fake they can Block me... I Again use my real Phone number to gmail create that Works but the number to create gmail By sms pool blocks Many times.... Fake Website don't trust.. I also Used there usa Numbers

Edit 2 jun27/2026:
Now they tried ro take my review down by requesting more info, and i have not mass posted this review.

edit 1:
bcause i got a so called defamatory request change from trustpilot. Thank you for trying to take the review down.

to remind that you have repetitive complains on reddit and here on trustpilot that user are experiencing same problems as me.

Your claim that numbers get resold after a couple months is still complete lies.
If i look at my sms pool order history i had to rebuy whatsapp from you several times a week because my accounts either got signed out by another user buying it. Usually chinese or indians because my numbers where remade into investment scam accounts immediatly after buying. Ive tried using two factor and it still manages to sign out ive tried adding pincodes it still gets signed out, the profile pic changes and it is used by scammers. or they get banned hours after normal use. One account was even banned within idle overnight without acitvity. I used sms pool for months. My friends too. It worked ok in late 2024, This is not a fake defamatory review, i can provide recipets of my purchases and top ups.
This is what you offer - Every number bought through sms pool has either been banned within hours or signed out.
This has not happend since i changed service. I have not changed devices or my apps. Only the sms service provider. These numbers are unstable. They work till you get banned or signed out, these numbers get flagged as voip numbers therefore they get banned, signal accounts get stuck in captchahell etc. But the most annoying of them all they get resold by smspool within 1-5 days, when using services such as signal or whatsapp, telegram - you know. The stuff people actually use these numbers for, have a life expectancy to work for one week maximum then problems occur. And you cannot rebuy your lost data. So the refund that you humble yourselves with giving ,is wortless as your numbers cost 0.3 dollars each. Why would i want 30 cent refund for my lost data?

So its neither my devices or whatsapp installs that was causing all these problems it was smspools numbers that are unstable trash. This is not acceptable at all, especially when they advertise themselves as world leading, nice that blckhat SEO is working out for you.

Yes it is true you display hit rate, after i put money in the account, and actually pass by your toolbar tips. That just distract us from actually using the UI. Social engineering is only good when a service is being used by regular traffic. Not the customers you are advertising yoyrselves too.

After trying sms pool, it does what it advertises, but extremly bad, i mean you sometimes get a working number after 10 - 20 tries. Sometimes the code arrives but the account gets locked a minute prior to entering the code, sometimes the account works for a week. For 30 cent each thats not bad. But the data thats lost because they resold your batch to another sms provider is not worth being cheap about. Dont use this service for anything other than temporary access to a service. See it as a trial you pay for. Just be prepared after one week of usage you can no longer count the account as yours anymore. Oh, and if you complain about it to trustpilot i get reported for defaming them. The users who want to try this service, do so, dont complain later that it is unstable because the admins will not fix it and report you instead.
This service just is very inconveniant and it does not care about its users at all, they want traffic and nothing else.

If i buy a number from a service that claims stabilty and you claim to not resell numbers. How come my whatsapp numbers where constantly signed out and reused for scam campaigns every week when using smspool numbers, but not a competitor? Ive had one whatsapp signed in for over 10 months with your competitor? Why even try to stand on this when i can provide all the screenshots you want that im constantly being signed out? You are talking trash, trying to defend a point that is not true i can quote you on reddit from 2 years ago

"Hi, this is due to the number leaving our system after 3-5 days. It could mean that the carrier recycled the number onto their system and granted it to another consumer."
So according to your reddit post you "recycle" the number after 2-5 days.

That might explain why my accounts where signed out all within a week of activating.

Original review (edited, bcz butthurt dev -
This service is trash, The support is slow and the numbers have a hit rate of 20-30% meaning yoy will have to rebuy a bunch of numbers and retry atleast 10 numbers before one works for you and you get a code....

I say as previous reviewers. When u change the bad things in your service. I will change my review. Thanks for the defamatory report. Trustpilot put my review back online just 1 hour after your report

Worthless garbage, not working, stuck on waiting.

This app and their service deserve 10 stars, not just 5! Before finding SMSPool, I struggled for over a month trying many other apps to recover my suspended Google account, but none of them worked. SMSPool's long-term rental numbers are 100% real (Non-VoIP), highly reliable, and worked perfectly on the very first try. Their service is on the same high level as Tello. Even though the price might seem a bit high at first, it is worth every single penny because of their 100% credibility and effectiveness in saving your important data. Their support team is incredibly helpful and fast. This is now an essential app on my phone. Thank you so much!

I was trying to get a working rental number several times, and none of them has worked for my purpose. Well, i guess it was unluck. In the end, i requested a balance refund.
But, to be fair, support was great and responded very quickly. The day after i opened a ticket i've received an answer, stating that they have started the refund process. And 1 day later funds were back on my card.

Great service, but getting the number itself is quite the gamble, i would say.
At least this site is not a scam, which is rare nowadays. I would recommend, if you have enough time to get the working number.

Took me like 3-4 tries(even with high success rate) to get a number that worked but eventually got through. Does what it says honestly. Interface is simple and the code came pretty fast once i got a good number.

Fairly decent experience, having some issues on the accounts being used before for specific services. But at least its not a scam compared to about 90% of others. FAST AF ticket response shout out Jay for the speediness and solved all issues

2 to 3 years ago this service was the best for making ebay accounts. Something has happened since however. Ever since this year 2026 started, I have had 0 success with setting up an ebay account through smspool. I've spent almost $20 on their service and without fail every ebay account gets suspended. Used to be I could start selling straight away and get high limits of 5000/$50,000. Now I get 10/$200 and an mc999 after 5 minutes. Doesn't matter if I wait 2 weeks before listing, same thing happens.

My order isn't processing

they gave me verification code and when i entered it the app told me that it's expired and when i tried to resend it again they smspool told me that the action can't be done yet they have that option of resending code on their side 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

all the accounts i try to make on marktplaats get immediately blocked because of you guys using old numbers!!!!
