Which SMS service to use?
SMS services are not rocket science. You need a number, you need a code, you get it. The whole difference between services comes down to three things: number availability, success rate and price. And ideally the site doesn't look like a 2009 scam page, but that's a bonus.
My go-to for quick one-time activations is SMSPool. Huge functionality, success rate is shown right on each number, support actually responds, has API. If you need rentals - it can do that too, ~$6/day or ~$18 for 28 days. For simple tasks where you just need it fast and cheap, I usually use 365-SMS - always has numbers in stock and good success rate.
If you need cheap and bulk: HeroSMS (successor of the legendary SMS-Activate) and Tiger SMS - numbers from 3 cents, huge selection of countries and services. Perfect for mass registrations.
If you need quality: TextVerified - expensive, but the numbers are genuinely clean. When you need one important account and don't want to risk it - you pay more and sleep well.
Tip: buy a number from the same country as your proxy. If you're browsing through a German IP and grab a number from Bangladesh - don't be surprised when the account lives for 15 minutes. And don't be cheap on numbers for important accounts, better to pay $1 for a good one than $0.03 for a dead one.
