esimdb VS VoIP.ms

People here seem to quickly react by recommending their favorite travel eSIM provider. I'd propose what I find to be a bit more useful, a website that compares a bunch of different travel eSIM providers: https://esimdb.com No affiliation from my side.

It may be worth considering https://www.airalo.com/ for future trips, or checking what is the best value option for you on https://esimdb.com/. Source: 5 months ago

For Belize you can find eSim providers using https://esimdb.com. I’m not sure what local plans they have and how difficult it would be to get. Source: 6 months ago

Alternatively look for a data esim like esimdb.com or airalo.com for regional esim you can install prior to departure. Can check the big Euro carriers for regional deals like Orange or 3, etc. Source: 10 months ago

Hello, I hope this is not too off-topic, but I suspect there must be many people here who have run into this. I use voip.ms, and have always received voicemails as email attachments with no problem. Since switching to Windows 11 from Windows 10, I can no longer play the files, but have to download them. Windows 11, Chrome, gmail. Error message: 'there was a problem playing this audio file'.

This is usually very limited. For instance, I used voip.ms, and they limit it to 100 per day and costs me abotu a penny a message (separate charges for inbound and outbound, so 2 cents to receive a message and then forward it along) This is done because SMS forwarding looks spammy and the receiving carrier will block the sending carrier entirely (this is why Google had to end it).
