I've been using this phone number from JMP.chat and I've barely used it for much of anything (Started February 27th, 2024), and somehow its telling me I need $35? I tried out their service plan but it was way too expensive. I only bought it once and took off my credit card after because auto pay kept auto depositing money into my account too frequently. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
Edit: Found out what happened, it's $6.99/GB for the eSIM, I'm billed 5GB at a time. So $35 total.
Is it possible to use this number with matrix? That'd be a perfect option for me, I don't really want to sign up to another chat service.
No, but you can use Matrix through an XMPP gateway.
Does this mean you'd be able to send people text messages and call via matrix?
Honestly if I could do that I'd be happy to remove almost all other Comms methods from my devices.
No, but you can do it via XMPP, which is better than Matrix anyway.
