So, lately a loooot of Services want a phone number from you even for th slightiest Things.

9 of 10 cases i dont wanna Do that so cannot use that Service. But sometimes i really need a specific Service But dont see the reason why it need my (Real) phone number.

So have anybody any Tips for me?

The reasons i wanna Do that is obciously besides privacy that i so far never had receive any Spam SMS in my Life and still wanna keep it that way.

    I have done my research a few years ago and came to the solution, that there is no free method. You will need to pay for a service. I use smspva.com for registrations. But that only works, if you only need to read an sms once. After 10minutes or so, you will not have access to the inbox anymore. Depending on the service, you need a number for and the country you want it to be from, it costs between $0,10 to $1,5 per number. Sadly you have to pay a minimum balance of $5.
