Disappointed

I signed up for a US number. And kept above 0 balance. Suddenly the number was gone without warning. And they told me it expired and now I need to pay the new higher price. They said I needed to have a sufficient amount in the account. I have asked three Times what that amount is without response. I also asked why I wasn’t wanted or notified the number could be lost. I rely on this number to help care for my elderly father far away which all doctors and nurses had. When I signed up for the number prices we’re different. It seems they just want to rise the price for existing customers. But the problem for me is the lack of clear answers and rules when asked. Seems subject to change a vague. I have to pay for coins plus a monthly charge now? Confused.

We’re really sorry for the confusion and the disruption this caused—especially given how important your number is. Subscription numbers do require a minimum balance for renewal, and expiration can happen if it’s not met, but we understand this wasn’t clearly communicated. Please contact support@pingme.tel
with your account details so we can clarify the required balance, review what happened, and help restore a stable solution for you.

SCAM ALERT

SCAM ALERT ❌️
PINGME HAS NOW BECOME A SCAM! JUST LIKE THOUSANDS OF OTHER USERS HAVE ALREADY SAID ON GOOGLE PLAY STORE, YOU WILL TRY OVER 100 WHATSAPP NUMBERS BUT NONE OF THEM WILL RECEIVE THE VERIFICATION CODE! THEN YOUR MONEY WILL JUST REMAIN STUCK INTO THE APP WITHOUT NO REFUND AND NO POSSIBILITY TO CHARGEBACK TO YOUR CARD! IF YOU DON'T WANT TO THROW AWAY YOUR MONEY, JUST STAY AWAY FROM PING ME AS THEY WILL JUST PLAY PING PONG WITH YOU 🏓

We’re really sorry this was your experience — we understand how frustrating that feels. Verification for platforms like WhatsApp can be affected by their own risk controls and network factors, which can block or delay codes. Trying a different number, network, or timing often helps, and our support team (support@pingme.tel) is here to assist if you reach out.

This one is definitely a fraud

This one is definitely a fraud. Your money will be debited, first without it reflecting then the second time when it does reflect you will wait indefinitely for the "team to review your details". Look for another alternative.

That’s understandably concerning—being charged twice and waiting without updates isn’t a good experience. Sometimes duplicate or delayed charges happen due to payment processing or network timing, and they usually get reversed after verification. Please try refreshing your app, checking your payment status, or reaching out to support@pingme.tel so our team can review it properly.

That’s definitely frustrating, especially when your balance hasn’t updated. If you’re mainly using one platform (like TikTok) for verification, we recommend trying the “Verification” section—it’s usually smoother and more cost-effective than “Numbers.” If the payment still hasn’t come through, please contact us at support@pingme.tel
with your transaction details so we can resolve it quickly.

That sounds really concerning—especially after multiple payments without seeing your balance update. In some cases, delays like this can be caused by payment processing or network sync issues, and transactions may not reflect immediately. Please reach out to support at support@pingme.tel
with your payment details so the team can investigate and help resolve this as quickly as possible.

This is a horrible service

This is a horrible service. Unable to send pictures and text messages without being asked to put a code and sometimes, account is closed for long hours without having access to the people i bought the number to discuss with. SCAM

We get how frustrating that feels. PingMe offers two different services—“Verification” is only for receiving platform-specific codes, while “Numbers” is designed for regular texting and calling. If you need full messaging features, we recommend subscribing to a number in the “Numbers” section for a more stable experience.

I was worried about the service but not anymore...

Hi.
I donno about all the 1 start reviews here which also made me worried to test this service but I gave it a shot.
my balance also was not added after payment but the reason was because of my payment fee and low balance.
I just contacted the support team with no hope tbh and I saw these reviews, but they just responded to me after and hour and I just gave them a proof of payment and they added the amount in my account.

Thank you so much for the support ...

That’s definitely frustrating. In some cases, very small payments or processing fees can make the balance appear as if nothing was added—but the funds aren’t lost. Please reach out to support@pingme.tel with your payment proof, and they’ll quickly check and adjust your balance if needed.

I hear how frustrating that wait must be—especially after topping up and not seeing it reflect. Sometimes payments can take longer to appear due to processing fees or verification delays, but your funds aren’t lost.

If you can resend your payment proof (including Transaction ID, amount, payment date and payment status), our support team will take another look and make sure your balance is updated as soon as possible.

We understand how concerning that feels. In some cases, third party top-ups like Crypto or Google Pay can appear missing due to processing fees and time, but the funds aren’t lost. Please share your payment proof with our support team so they can quickly review and adjust your balance, and we appreciate your patience on the response time.

Sorry you’re experiencing this — that’s definitely not expected for an active Number. Please try restarting your device, checking your network connection, or testing the number from a different device. If it still doesn’t work, reach out to support with your number details so we can check its status or help you replace it quickly.

They lie

I have a feeling this app doesn't accept non US citizens (and probably few accepted countries) but they would allow everyone create and fund their accounts with them only to be giving them excuses for months to months about not having any available phone numbers. And when asked for refund they will keep promising to have phone numbers available.

Sorry for the frustration — we know how disappointing this experience can be. PingMe doesn’t restrict accounts by nationality, but number availability can sometimes be limited due to real-time supply, regional demand, and temporary restrictions from platforms, which may affect certain countries more than others.

You can try switching regions or checking back later, and for a quicker solution, please email support@pingme.tel with your account details so we can assist or arrange a resolution.

Submit a problem for a long time can not get any reply

Submit a problem for a long time can not get any reply, after-sales service is useless.

The number rented from the Moneylion category was entered into the Moneylion website and Moneylion said it was invalid.

But the number I rented from the Greendot category can be sent to Moneylion.
