TalkU: Unlimited Calls + Texts for Negative User Reviews

RIPPED OFF OF MY CREDITS!!Well this is the fourth time I've tried to contact talku i'm cheating me out of credits on a free Internet phone call today! Two times I tried to send a ticket through the app and it told me it wouldn't go through, today I try to send a trouble ticket through the website and it wouldn't go through! Apparently they don't want people telling them that they're ripping people off! I've been a long time talku customer, and I really keep credits on my phone, today I use it for a phone call using the free Internet option, and yes I did check to make sure it was a free Internet option! it ran through my talkie credits like it was water! and what's really upsetting, is I've had to jump through hoops to even send a trouble ticket in for it and I still haven't got to so I have this right this bad review!!!.Version: 3.8.0

Free calling? Lies.You have to pay. There is nothing free about this.Version: 3.6.0

Rip off!App tricked me into paying $30 dollars when it was supposed to be a free trail. Be careful, shady company.Version: 4.0.1

Cannot verify phone numberI entered my phone number correctly but never received the access code..Version: 3.6.0

Expensive, can’t be used to verify appsTalkU numbers are too expensive, and when you use TalkU numbers to get code from apps like Google, Viber, WhatsApp, etc…they won’t let you because they consider TalkU numbers as fake ones or vanity ones. Too bad and useless numbers for such expensive prices..Version: 4.7.0

Waste of timeJust downloaded this to ring a landline it isn’t free you need credits only give me first 10 minutes or so free then said to buy more credits. DONT BOTHER! DELETED!.Version: 4.7.0

Bull SHlT appYou have to pay money. Lol in 2023 people pay for a calling app ? Over qualified 🤦‍♂️.Version: 4.7.0

It’s frustrating at timesFor the most part I haven’t been able to find any other text/call free app that legitimately works. Although this app is frustrating at times.. sometimes I’m able to use ONLY a strong WiFi to answer calls and other times I’m only able to use cellular data. Very inconsistent and very frustrating being the calls that come in are VERY important that I answer..Version: 3.1.0

Used to work pretty goodLeaving this review because for a while now, it won’t notify me when someone calls! No ringing, nothing until AFTER the caller hangs up. Some calls are important and there’s no way for me to call back and get ahold of someone. (ie unemployment) I’m sure lots of people know how difficult it is to get ahold of them. There’s no cell service where I live and this app was helpful for sure! But like I said, not helpful when I need to know someone’s calling. I’ve also been getting random texts from people I don’t know. Like somehow my number gets cross connected with others. It’s weird..Version: 3.7.0

UselessCharges alot per SMS compare to some companies you have to watch video to earn credit but half the time it says no videos to watch so can't earn the credit CRAP!.Version: 4.7.0

Rip Off on Text MessagesThis app is a total rip off. They lead you to believe it’s unlimited text and talk when you pay for the number and compare themselves to other apps. You only get 30 free text messages a day and those are with limited characters. I sent what I felt was a relatively short text and the system divides it into 8 text messages and it counts against the 30 free texts per day. Then they have the audacity to charge $.50 per text for any text over the 30 with the very limited text character limit. This product is an absolute ripoff. Don’t waste your money like I did. Google Voice has true unlimited text and voice and does not charge for the number..Version: 3.2.0

Not honest appI had a good tel number which I’m using for years, Just in a sudden while I’m paying all renewal fees, and monthly fees, TalkU took my special tel number away, and wrote in my app expired and replace it by another phone number doesn’t belong to me .. very strange !!! They didn’t even give me my credit points back!! Be careful , I’m not the first one who suffered from TalkU..Version: 3.7.0

Don’t do it. This app sucksAbsolutely the worst ever. I can’t cancel the subscription and I’m scared it’s going to charge me again..Version: 4.7.0

ScamI bought $10 worth of credits and all of a sudden I open the app and it’s back at 0.00 when I only made 2 calls.Version: 3.4.0

Use something else for phone verificationsI needed this for a Google voice number and it blanked out the code and immediately sent me into a black hole of feeding a virtual pet cat, watching ads, solving math problems, completing shady quizzes to earn credits. to see codes you have to get 750 credits (750 credits a year, no less) or buy a subscription. all i want IS TO REVEAL MY CODE. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR.Version: 4.1.1

No free rewardsI dont get any rewards when i invite my friends.. Eventhough they mentioned you ll get 20...Version: 1.6.1

App keeps CrashingIt’s a great App but keeps crashing. A fix is urgently needed.Version: 3.7.0

Useless AppCould not sign up. Obviously not meant to work in Australia. Could not get text. Only got errors. Tried to sign up with email. Suppose to get 4 digit code. Useless.Version: 3.7.0

DON’T BOTHER DOWNLOADING!Awful, misleading and if you don’t use your credits they disappear. Too many ads with slow response& very time consuming. Very low credits for small ads. Can’t trust buying real credits with such credibility, seriously. DON’T BOTHER!.Version: 3.9.1

Don’t waist your money. Doesn’t work anymore.I’ve had this app for a few years now and have lots of credit. I used to be able to call Australian numbers including my own, but for a few months this is no longer working. I can ring USA numbers without a glitch. But I know they have must have changed the settings. I haven’t changed anything including the mobile numbers and Country codes that used to work before, and this also goes for sms’s. It’s not a phone fault either as we have 5 mobiles and none work including iPhone 13. Please don’t try to make yourself look good by asking me to contact you directly. You know the situation exists, so how about telling us all on here why Australian numbers can’t be called from 2 USA numbers I paid for? Who knows, I am probably restricted to only calling USA numbers and not just Australian numbers..Version: 4.7.0

Was good at firstThis app was good at first, but it’s so bad now to say the least..Version: 2.5.1

FantasticI don't know what to say well,it is very very good and I didn't think it was that good to be honest and it give u unlimited texts & calls also if they ant on there you can call then still without no credit how cool is that and it's better than watsapp defiantly.Version: 2.0.6

Didn’t receive any textsI bought a 1-month subscription for an Australian number and had a friend send me test texts. He received the one I sent, but I didn’t receive any of the ones he sent me back (to the same number). This app doesn’t work and I wasted $31 for nothing..Version: 4.1.1

App crashesApp didn’t work properly all the time Even my app does not open So how i will give feedback on app When im trying to open its loading and disappear after 4-5 secs.Version: 3.6.1

It’s Free? LmaoYes technically it is free for 2 or 3 calls. Lmao. It’s not free lmao. How can you say free. Free after you pay. We won’t charge you after you pay its 100% free. Lmao. Thanks for the 3 free calls. Delete. They contacted me to inform me it’s free between you and other users of this app. I understood it as a free internet phone. Could be my misunderstanding I don’t know. I made 2 emergency calls it served my purpose. Don’t want to go in the mall to pay my regular phone for a while.Version: 3.7.0

ScammyIf the app was a human, I would have burried it in the woods already..Version: 4.4.0

Don’t download this app❗️❗️After paying for number, I still have to pay for credit to receive text or call.... don’t download it.Version: 4.7.0

Slow receiving for textsEven if the phones were right next to each other they would take forever to receive the texts.Version: 3.7.0

Fake no Canadian numberFake no Canadian number & put Canada flag.Version: 4.2.0

UNABLE TO RECEIVE ACCESS CODE TO RETRIEVE MY ACCOUNTI lost my device a few days ago and I am having problems retrieving my talk u number! I have credits loaded in it and I use my paid number to operate that line! When I try to retrieve it they say they are unable to send the access code to my paid number for me to login. I keep sending reports and nothing has been done!!.Version: 4.5.0

HeyI can talk very clearly but the only problem is when I watch adverts and receive credits they waste reallly quick so I can only Talk for a bit and I really would appreciate it if you could get us to receive more credits for freee because adverts are unavailable after a while and I really would love this app if there was other easy ways to receive free credits.Version: 3.1.0

Account missing!I have been using this app for almost 2 years now been very happy with it or what I was using it for the past six months I’ve been just collecting my points just in case I do need it again I had over 1600 points in my account two days ago today I open the app and it’s asking me to sign up or click on the link below that if I dohave an account. Which I did enter the telephone number TalkU gave me almost 2 years ago and there is no account matching my telephone number. So I tried the email login method and unfortunately I do not have access to that email it was almost 2 years ago so where did my account go one star because man that’s a bummer and I’m really I’m really bummed out I spent a lot of days checking in and doing all these things and purchasing stuff to get all these points and you guys don’t even know it existed.Version: 2.5.1

DeactivateTrying to deactivate my account/profile ASAP. Get warnings cannot deactivate. iPhone XR please fix ASAP. I tried contacting support and get system error and can’t submit my request.Version: 3.7.0

Expensive and you have to pay for every single thingThis app offers very expensive services. Also, it only gives you virtual numbers even if they say “real number” just don’t believe it. Their numbers can’t be used with activating Whatsapp, Viber, Imo, ... etc. What’s bothering the most is that you have to pay if you want to receive a phone call though. Regarding call rates, they offer a very expensive ones. I highly recommend you to use TextPlus app to get a free virtual number such as the one you can pay for in TalkU. I also recommend you to use Boss Revolution or Viber for cheaper call rates with same or even better phone call quality. If you purchased some service and found it don’t match the description, then you can’t get a refund and the will respond with “this is against our policy”.. Apple must remove this app from their store..Version: 4.3.0

Give me problemsI’ve got full signals and this app says Network error most of the time so boring.Version: 3.6.1

Don’t waste your moneyDoesn’t work and they won’t refund. Customer service is non existent. Very disappointed. My daughter going to University in America I thought this would be a good way for her to have a local number. How wrong I was. Wish people gave truthful feedback it would have save me money..Version: 4.7.0

Poor customer service and not informativeI had no problems with this app until recently when my points in the rewards section suddenly expired with out any notice of the upcoming event. As long as I have been a customer I’ve never knew or known of those points expiring which is why it was a shock. It expired at the end of the year. I reached out to support and apparently it fell on deaf ears. I yearned those points and when you earn something you should be able to keep them and use them at your discretion. I use to promote this app to others but until they make it right with me that’s going to stop plus I am going to launch a negative campaign against them. Make it right!.Version: 4.7.0

DANGEROUS***BE WARNED*** Your data will be sold by this app! This app constantly displays messages to try to manipulate you into giving it permission to access all your contacts info and other personal details so that they can sell your details to other third parties. I’ve received endless prank calls, scam texts since installing this!!.Version: 4.7.0

BrokenWhen I hit get access to this number it does nothing please fix it.Version: 3.9.1

Charged without properly connecting my callOn several occasions I tried to make a call but all that happens was that my call was ‘connected’ (and my account charged) but there was no response from the other end of the line. I performed a speed test to check this wasn’t an issue on my end and there was no problem with my Wi-Fi connection so the issue must be with the TalkU software. Not impressed - I would recommend exploring an alternative provider..Version: 4.7.0

AnnoyedThis app is confusing .. i pay monthly but i still can’t receive calls because i have no credits ? I don’t understand i can see why I’d need credits to make calls but to receive them it doesn’t make sense considering I’m paying monthly for the number.Version: 4.3.1

GarbageNo Canadian area codes even though there’s a photo of the Canadian flag..Version: 4.7.0

App refuses to use wi-fiDevs really have big *****. The app is shutting the phone’s wi-fi as soon as I open it so I cannot take advantage of the crappy but very needed credit rewards that can be earned watching ads, which require wi-fi because of the data consumption. I got no active numbers, all expired, so what’s the silly issue about someone with no active numbers using the app via wi-fi? What’s the loss for you there? I am definitely on the wrong job career; I should be writing apps because I would be rich in a very short time thanks to all the abusive tricks I could do without being scolded..Version: 2.0.6

No service, no support, no one cares!I bought a TalkU number so I could have an extra UK number, mainly for sending and receiving SMS messages. Unfortunately, the app simply doesn't receive SMS messages, only sometimes receives calls and the support is non-existent. On top of that it's expensive to receive calls and messages when I've already bought a number! To be honest I'm surprised Apple even allows such a scammy app on the App Store. It really doesn't reflect well on Apple. I wish I had read more reviews before purchasing a number. I don't know why Apple highlights one positive review from 4 years ago when 95% of all the recent reviews are so negative. AVOID THIS APP!.Version: 4.7.0

This app current has a big ErrorLooking to resolve the problem but log in with email does not work, this includes log in with mobile number and sign up with email and mobile number making it not worth your time trying all ways around this error..Version: 4.7.0

SucksDnt waste your time..Version: 4.7.0

Pay and payPay for a subscription and pay for minutes. Only download this if you're rich..Version: 4.7.0

WhatatrashappI normally don’t do app reviews cause I either glorify or shame things too much. Well here goes! 1. You receive texts super late and the message you’ll receive is blocky so have trying to read a simple text thread. 2. Incoming calls don’t ring and when they do it’s last second, basically either you miss calls or get voicemails with no alert of someone trying to contact you. 3. There’s ads after EVERY call, this is absurd why the hell do I still have a billion ads popping up when I put dollars into this app for credit use? No grace for a loyal user? 4. All the “TalkU” trademarks on the app have 2016 next to them which leads me to believe that no one has continued development for the interface and operating system in almost 2 years. 5. The updates do virtually nothing. The application is clearly in stagnant stages of development, this app feels like it’s wasting space and emptying my pocket at the same time. You’re better off buying a starter flip phone from Boost or Metro versus using WiFi to make calls..Version: 2.0.8

Its a great app but it often have connectivity issuesMist improve connectivity.Version: 3.5.1

Why it is a secret How to delete my account?I want to delete my account Why this is not an option with the app? Why it is not shown haw anywhere in your site? Are you making money from people’s information? Why it is not clear stated in your apps description that you are not offering free calls to every number, and only to other users? - that means mobiles only I have Viber for this / Everyone Has Viber Why are you laying? Just let me know HOW TO ERASE MY ACCOUNT WITH YOU AND THE DATA COLLECTED FROM ME STORED ON YOUR SERVERS SUMPLE THINK THANK YOU.Version: 3.6.0

FakeYou have to pay its fake.Version: 3.6.1

Waste of timeComplete waste of time !.Version: 3.1.0

HorribleYou can’t make free call. You can’t get credits. You buy credit so explain how it is free😶. You tell talk u about the situation and they say they look into the matter. 6 months in still waiting. I did tasks to eat credit and still it says pending. Never had it on my phone before applied to there stupid offers and get emails calls and even letters from the stupid offers but still no talk u credit. Cause they looking into it. You all deserve no stars. Horrible disgusting service. You have a call. It sound so bad and it steals credits. And when talk u is informed they say check the WiFi. If I sit any closer to the WiFi router it will be inside me. So those who say awesome and great and wonderful service remember you ain’t getting nothing for lying. Speak the truth and don’t be a dunce. NOTHING FREE. YOU BUYING CREDITS..Version: 2.0.2

Terrible and the most useless appThis is the most useless rip off app. After buying a number off them, I still can’t receive free calls. I get charged on calling and receiving calls 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️. This is crazy after paying for one year number. I regret buying this app.Version: 2.2.3

AwfulTerrible app slow, expensive.Version: 4.7.0

You cant , get free number in thisYou cant , get free number in this.Version: 4.7.0

Disappointment. Not free!!This is the 3rd Text/ Call app im trying and so far it’s the worst. You can’t send videos. My friends don’t receive a group text if I’m the one that starts it. And the first 30 messages are supposed to be free each day yet it takes away credits from me all the time. I’ve also done two different offers where I didn’t get the credits and followed the instructions and I replied to the email and they ended up replying to me with the same instructions🙄.Unless you don’t mind watching 2 short videos each time you want to reply to a text message then I really don’t recommend this app..Version: 2.5.0

Fraud/Scam App! Do not download!!This app seemed pretty decent due to reviews so I decided to give it a try. When you first open the app, it asks you to create new number. I selected it and it gave me two options for subscription plan. First was 3 day trial(recommended) and the second option was a full months subscription. I selected the 3 day trial and used my scan to finalize... it ended up charging me for 3 full months!! Who does that? I would understand if I myself had selected the trial and time ran out... but I literally just downloaded the app and selected the recommended 3 day trial.. which by the way didn’t even register as a trial. Horrible app and trying to get a hold of someone is frustrating. You have to report feedback and wait for an email response. Edit: I’ve gotten a response and they keep telling me if I had cancelled my membership on time I wouldn’t have been charged. LOL I explained that I selected the trial and gotc charged for an actual membership instead. I also informed them that I had just downloaded the app minutes ago and was still told it was my fault. What a joke of both app/customer service. Worst I’ve ever seen..Version: 4.3.0

Do not buyThis is a scam. I haven’t been connected for one single phone all- just a fake automatic message from a guy pretending to be on the phone, to make you believe you are connected. I payed money and haven’t been able to place a single call.Version: 4.7.0

This app is a scamThis app is a cash cow! Wanting you to pay to monthly access to the app and THEN buy credits to use the service! It’s very deceptive practice will eventually prompt you to delete it! I spent $40 before I understood the concept. I went to bed with 500 credits and woke up with ZERO credits! It is a pyramid scheme to attempt your to get your friends to download it, go through the same process, pay the same user fees and talk “free” to each other between users! User beware and stay away! Just use WhatsApp, TextMe, or any free service! STAY AWAY!.Version: 4.7.0

CallsOn the current version when you make the call ppl they can’t hear 👂 you only works when they call you back on a land line ☎️ cellular to cellular calls never connect the call just drops 🙄 Updated to a two star ⭐️⭐️user in two days received a text you failed to check in you are no longer a two star ⭐️⭐️user now you need 30 more credits to become a two⭐️⭐️star user again! What kind of scam it’s that🤨.Version: 2.2.2

Terrible. Doesn’t work.Text messages don’t forward to the number provided. Stay away..Version: 4.7.0

I’m giving up on this app, so sad.I got this app 2 years ago while overseas, half of the time worked ok and half just didn’t. I kept buying credits because it was my only choice. I have a lot of apps and accounts register with one of my three numbers from talk you. Now that I am in the states and I need to get access codes by sms in order to change my account settings.... I GET MY SMS’s WITH ONE HOUR DELAY!! apps and websites codes will only work for ten min. This is causing a big issue and after writing to talk U many times so far I haven’t received a reply or any help!.Version: 3.8.0

Misleading descriptionDoes not offer free phone number, as claimed in description..Version: 3.7.0

Unlimited free calls it is notEven with a subscription you need credits for ever call you make or receive. Dont see any reason for the subscription but feel completely ripped off.Version: 3.9.1

Lost moneyVery very very very bad app, I couldn’t use it, call is not connecting, if its connected I can’t hear anything,no voice clarity. Totally waste, you guys need money only..Version: 4.6.1

Scam calls?Idk if it’s to do with this app but I got a scam call from Perth after just adjusting the settings of the app (permissions) be careful!.Version: 4.7.0

Ripped off by Talku - Avoid at any cost!Used the TalkU service for maybe 5 years, worked OK, sometimes sketchy, but usually worked okay. But then, after running out of credits, decided to purchase the one year unlimited talk and text deal for $69 through the Apple app store. This was back in mid March 2020. It is now over a month later, end of April 2020 and service still does not work due to lack of credits. I have sent countless emails to TalkU without any reasonable response, except for one... The email from TalkU admitted that on some networks they cannot actually provide the unlimited service - they didn't say which network - I have Verizon... So they gave me 25 credits to start the service again. Huh? Should be more like 3,500 credits! Those 25 credits got used up in an afternoon and I was back to no service. So I sent the company more emails requesting that they simply give me $70 worth of credits so I could at least use the service that I paid for - crickets - no response. Really? Is it so unreasonable to expect to receive what we pay for? If TalkU knows that the $69 deal sometimes doesn't work, why don't they admit that and then give a comensurate number of credits like 3,500, which is in line with other credits pricing on the TalkU system? Unless you enjoy futile customer service experiences and getting ripped off, I recommend you avoid TalkU. There are many other options out there! Thanks for reading, and good luck!.Version: 3.7.0

SUCH A SCAMI was looking for free apps to get a phone number because I don’t have a sim and before I downloaded this I looked at the reviews. I saw a few good ones and a few that said it was a scam. I ignored the bad reviews and downloaded it. I did everything (entered my email, name, et cetera) but then it made me PAY WHEN IT LITERALLY SAIS FREE! Do not download this waste of time! I’m saving you the trouble and money. Btw I was going to rate zero but it wouldn’t let me. ):.Version: 4.7.0

Its fakeIts very bad app Not good working Not recieved messages Very bad app.Version: 3.8.0

Checked in and watched ads,but still haven’t received any credit yetTxt messages cost money,but don’t send through. Checked in and watched ads,but still haven’t received any credit yet..Version: 3.7.0

Awful!!I have used the app for years for international calling. They totally lie about the free credits! Do not waste your valuable time completing the quizzes/surveys or anything else because after over an hour of your time completing several each and everyone will say you do not qualify! Prompts you to continue and complete one more thing to actually receive them only to be told the very same thing upon completion! It’s sad and pathetic to use loyal customers the way they do! I have never received any of MY “free credits” I rightfully earned! Shared the app with 20 plus friends and never received a single credit! Downloaded and completed many task.....you don’t qualify after completing! Took many surveys...after completion....do not qualify. How can you not qualify for giving your opinion which they ask for? Took many quizzes....do not qualify!! Seriously!!! Pathetic!! Doing task that should have earned me a total of over 3000 credits.....BIG 0 of those received. The only thing they honor are the .05 credits for watching a video! That part of the app is nothing but a lying, scamming, use you to get what they need but don’t honor what they are suppose to give, very sad and pathetic APP!! I’d highly advise anyone to use a different one such as TALK U who gives actual credits worth your while for watching videos etc!!.Version: 4.5.0

Awesome appThis app is so great for an iPod or Apple devise that is not the phone. You should definitely get this app.Version: 1.4.1

VoipWill not work to register important websites cause its VOIp number you also wont get any OTP codes. Its just an internet number..Version: 4.7.0

Worked well-At firstThings started out great. Used it as a business number without having to get another phone. Then I slowly started not receiving messages from people. Eventually my messages stopped sending. Tried playing around with settings and making sure I had connection. I pay for the monthly service after using credits for about a month. Now it’s completely unusable despite me paying for it. Every time I try to report or give feedback through the app I just get a pop up saying “This device cannot send email”. A problem I’ve never ran into when reporting bugs on other apps. I will be switching to another phone number app. I’ve missed many opportunities now because my messages aren’t being sent despite having a monthly subscription and credits on my account.Version: 4.7.0

Again?I lost another star today for not checking in for two or more days, yet your calendar says I checked in last night. I didn’t miss it the app was glitching again. I check in every night and this the the second time I either didn’t receive my credits or told I didn’t check in when your very app says I did please fix this. When I try to sent feedback or report and hit submit it tells me it cannot receive emails? What? I am unable to contact support. I’m feel as if it’s because I’m not spending money on your app even though I watch videos, check in everyday, and download games..Version: 2.3.4

You have to pay twice !Honestly, there is nothing free. I tried to buy an europeen number and since it didn’t work I took another one right after. But none of them work and I had to pay twice ! I contacted their CS but I lost my time and they sent me 5 emails without solving my issues. Don’t loose you time and money with that !.Version: 3.6.1

Can't delete their accountsGot replied from their support that they can't delete account. Careful if you care about your personal data being kept after you realise it's a horrible app..Version: 4.0.0

Ok but could be better.When I first got it, it seemed ok. It gave me a real phone number and everything. Then it started sending me messages saying if I didn’t use my number within five days my number would expire. So I texted my sister to get it over with. But it didn’t work. Nothing happened. Then it was making me pay 0.5 credits to send more than 30 text messages. Really? What if something important is going on and I really need to talk but have no credits? You seriously need to let us have unlimited. Please fix this..Version: 3.3.0

Do not recommendThis app is one of the worst apps I believe I’ve ever encountered with. When making phone calls everything seems clear. But after making my first phone call just to test out the new app something weird happens lol. I could here my mom saying hello and my phone still ringing as if she never answered my phone call. The app is cool. It allows you to create and describe who you are and if you complete this process it gives you credit for completing it all. I thought that was great. But in all reality I’m not worried about my (bio) being created. I’m worried about being able to place a call when I need to and actually having a normal conversation without having to hear my phone continuously ring and play that ringtone music even after someone has answered. That’s just bogus! If they could fix that problem this app would be great. And if not I’d be more then happy to unsubscribe..Version: 4.7.0

Doesn’t work well at allI can’t believe the ratings are so high because this app is awful. Whether I’m on wifi or not, it never wants to connect. I’ve missed multiple calls in 24 hours because of “network connection errors”! It also uses a very arbitrary measure of how long a text is allowed to be and multiple texts means using “credits”. No two sentences in this review could be sent using just one text because it’s “too long” yet there isn’t a character count. A few letters takes me from two texts to three, there is no real measurement in place for how long a text is allowed to be. Bare minimum is that it’s easy enough to earn credits, but that’s only if the app wants to connect. I used this app to get a number for my business in order to keep my personal number private, but it has caused nothing but headaches. I don’t recommend for ANY use, it is a huge waste of time.Version: 4.7.0

Recently gone from bad to worseThe star are missing for the following reasons 1) not bluetooth friendly (this alone should make an app 1 star) 2) quality of sound (acceptable but not even average) 3) untrustworthy; all of the sudden the same plan and same phone number that had used for several times “so called low rate” is not covered by the plan, I would call this rip off if not anything worse. 4) I will leave soon unless see some significant changes including removing these stupid concept of free credits, so childish. 5) Customer service (only accept feedback) , well there isn’t really any direct service. I did request for fix anyway (totally ignored ) 6) too much access to private info in their terms 7) now uninstalled - if you see this app ::::> run! UPDATE no response from the company, totally ignore, terrible 😔 UPDATE; I recieved a message through apple service: reflecting developer request to fix this through app. The app is uninstalled I already did ask for fix and refund through app before uninstalling but - was ignored then, still no eefund yet..Version: 3.8.0

Messed UpAt first i loved the application cause i was able to but a foreign number call with it and it will show on the receivers phone that number i bought, but all of a sudden it didn’t last up to 24hours it switched when i call instead of it displaying the number i bought it will display a different number that i don't even know of, and this just messed me up big time! better fix your caller id issues immediately.Version: 2.2.1

Whyyy?Why has it started asking for money to get number for several countries ?.Version: 3.8.0

Continues to crashI did find this app very useful, however now whenever I open the app it crashes within seconds. I am unable to access the help through the app because it crashes before I can. I have purchased credits that I am now unable to use so really a waste of money! I have had the app less than a week so this is really disappointing, I wouldn’t recommend.Version: 3.7.0

Application very bedIt’s does not work all the time.Version: 3.9.1

NOT AVAILABLE AND NOT FREEThis doesn’t work I don’t know how it’s gotten 5 star review.Version: 4.1.1

Talk u appThe app its self works well for me, however my stars for checking in has a problem. Every so often I would lose a star for not checking in. After the last time I actually set an alarm so I would not forget and sometimes even check in twice to make sure it takes. Today I got another star taken, this is on your end. Tried to report the problem but the areas for type of device and description of problem does not work, that’s why this is under reviews..Version: 2.3.1

Did I download the same App as yours?• I get a second hand number, obviously, as the prior user utilized it to register some strange web sites, such as some dating websites, so some strangers sent me messages ask me if I’m ready to date, some random number call me when I pick up the phone, it’s silent the other side. Awesome. • I bought some credits, it consumed super fast for no reason, maybe there have some reason, cuz there are so many guys contact me, that makes me feel I’m so popular. Is it possible to rate 0 star? It’s the worst app I have ever downloaded..Version: 4.7.0

Fake reviewsPretty sure the reviews aren’t real. This app is stupid, I paid for the subscription and still had to add money for “credit” to make calls etc. The reception is horrible and basically paid $35 and never used the app..Version: 4.7.0

App revealed real NumberI honestly have never written a review for an app. But this app just really really upset me it revealed my real phone number which makes no sense knowing that the app was designed specifically to keep that from ever happening . Truly I failure by the developers and those responsible for the functionality of this app. I would not recommend this app for anyone hoping to conceal the phone number for important business purposes. Get the burner app. Update: The developer claims “you are able to change the caller ID. Some users want to reveal their real phone number, some users do not wish to.”...This is complete nonsense why would someone waste the minutes you force them to buy to make a call from their natural number? Clearly you can do that by just using your regular dial out method provided by your carrier!.Version: 2.1.0

Stay Away.You'll buy credits and all of a sudden you'll start getting 'Call failed, server is busy' errors. Crooks. Would give 0 stars if I could..Version: 4.7.0

No landline for caller ID settingsHaven’t tested the app because I need the caller ID to be landline and it only gives you the option of mobile caller ID. Is there any app out there except Skype that’s providing this option (why does it have to be so difficult)?.Version: 3.7.0

Not FreeI downloaded the app expecting too have a wifi calling phone application FREE, as the developer offered. I was tricked into downloading an app that eventually leads to a paid subscription to use. Dubious and deceitful. Stop wasting people’s time and data with eloquently disguised lies. Unless there is another way to use the app even to send one text message without charge, please kindly reply..Version: 4.7.0

Wasted my moneyI thought this would be a great way to have an Australian number for business, but every text used a lot of credit and phone calls did to. It’s also a monthly subscription. For a “free” app it cost more than some phone plans. I know that talking to other Talk U members is free, but no businesses or work colleagues/bosses aren’t downloading this to talk to me. If you have the option, just save your money and get a proper sim. Optus has $180 for 365 days: unlimited talk/text and 120GB of data (so 10GB/month). Not a bad deal: I only say this because $15/month for all this is cheaper than my $17/month for this app ($6/month just for the phone and $20 for 1000 credit). My main thing is that this and all the other “free” phone numbers aren’t free..Version: 3.7.0

SCAMMMMThe call will be perfect for less than a minute and then just starts repeating what the person on the other line said constantly. You can’t hear each other anymore. Waste of $15. I want my money back..Version: 3.5.1

I don’t know where they get this review but it’s not trueI never is wrote review for the telephone application and I download a lot . Some of them good some of them bad and scammers but this one is one of that I do not like much , It have hidden fee as no other phone number, so you pays for number and have free texts, it asking you to pay again after i received only 4 sms!! you pay already money for the number! So it’s hidden fee and it’s no problem for me to delete and download different application but since I’m apply this phone number so I need to stick with that, so I do not recommend this company who cannot create unlimited text messages with monthly plan as normal text free, text now, pinger have- this one have hidden fees. Two stars is only because I am able to choose good looking number..Version: 4.7.0

Kinda scammyThe app serves its purpose. You can text free for a couple days and pay if you wanna continue. You can use credits afterwards. Either I had a bad number or the app has a lot of fake text messages and “subscriptions” being sent to you to use up all your credits and force you to buy more. I don’t see any option to remove incoming texts from numbers you don’t know. In the 3 day trial, I’ve had about 6 different numbers texting me using up all my credits. I don’t think it’s a coincidence..Version: 4.6.1

Borderline scamThis app ate $5.49 and provided no results. i needed to make an account for my grandpa on an app that required a phone number. it really wasn’t worth buying him a sim since he would only be using this app. when looking for a solution, i stumbled upon this app. i figured it would be okay to use this phone number to receive a verification code and once i made an account i could link an email instead of a phone number. that wasn’t the case. the 6 digit verification code was starred out, so in order to receive the code, i’d have to pay monthly to “lock in” my number. i decided to go for it, as it would be cheaper than buying a sim, but upon receiving the verification code, it turns out secondary phone numbers aren’t allowed. there was no warning before i purchased the phone number, so i basically just wasted $5.49. after digging around to see what i could do with the $5.49 i spent, i found out that you have to continuously spend more money on coins to actually call and text frequently. i’d also be paying $7.99/week to keep the number which is honestly more expensive than some phone plans i’ve seen. this was not as advertised. i immediately canceled the subscription as this app is completely garbage and wasted both my time and $5.49. i went to their website looking for customer support and was greeted with essentially a glorified google form telling me that someone would “be in contact”. in my experience, those forms almost never work. don’t download this app. i would rather pay for a sim next time so i know i won’t be disappointed. now i just need to figure out how to get the $5.49 back..Version: 4.7.0

FakeHello.I already invite .and they open a new account.but i did not get anything or any credit .But there written 100 credit free ..Fake.Version: 3.6.0

Unreliable ServiceI'm finally throwing in the towel with this app. Like another reviewer, I wish I could give this app a zero, but alas I have to justify this forced star by saying the idea was good, but the execution is a major fail. I have had issues constantly. I have contacted customer support via email in the past and after they told me they could not find the problem (mind you I sent many screen shots of the error messages and my available coins as proof of what I see) they told me to buy more credits. UGH!!! Half the time I could not get calls through because the server was down and the other half when the call did go through the person on the other end didn't hear me at all. I wish I could have saved myself over a hundred dollars and read these reviews. Lesson learned and deleting this app..Version: 2.0.5

Customer service?I don’t know if it’s a glitch or not, I was doing completely fine until the friendly notification thing popped up, and now it won’t let me get back to the app. I purchased over 600 credits, I’ve been using the number connected to the credits for over a month. after not being able to bypass the friendly notification pop up I deleted it and installed it again thinking it would be fixed. Now I’m logged out of it and am no longer able to get the number back, is there a way I can get it back or be refunded asap?.Version: 4.7.0

GoodOver all this app is great but it has its pros and cons they thing I hate is that a week ago I did a lot of offers but only a few gave me the credits I earned I did all the requierments for it but I have not got my credits I have started over on them to but it hasn’t given me my reward but there are lots of good things about it to where I can text my friends with Androids with out data because I only have a iPod and it is very helpful but there are some cons to.Version: 2.1.0

Doesn’t work very well using voice-overMost of the buttons are not labelled when using voice-over. Half of the time the app doesn’t work..Version: 3.1.0

THIS APP SHOWS YOUR PERSONAL PHONE NUMBERI purchased this app specifically due to working from home during quarantine. When you call out a pop up comes up where you click on your personal number, or the TalkU number you chose. I always pick the TalkU number and when people call back it is obvious they are calling the TalkU number. I have received several calls this weekend from clients I have called during the week to my personal number. I’m really irritated and will be deleting this app. I do not want clients having my personal phone number and information. Edit: This app definitely reveals your personal phone number without your permission. I have received several more calls over the weekend and now have to pay to change a phone number I have had for 10 years..Version: 3.7.0

Overpriced and credits run out FASTI live overseas and needed an app for free (or at least cheap calling) I was given 300 credits for signing up and used those within 15 minutes of making calls. When I was on an important call the call completely cut out because I only had 1.60 credits left saying that would last a 5 minute phone call. Well it did not, I could not get the call to continue because it just cut out. When I tried to buy more credits it was 300 credits for $5!!!!!! I would rather just download another cheaper app. Sound quality was also not very good. Find another app.Version: 3.7.0

Free 3 day trialI want to end my 3 day trial before I get charged, but I cannot figure out how to notify the company..Version: 4.7.0

UselessI’ve had the app for a very long time, first it was fine, but now, what a waste of time and money, trying to connect is impossible when finally connected the conversation is absolutely mental cause you can’t understand a word anyone of us are saying to one another! Wouldn’t recommend this app at all unless issues are sorted out.Version: 2.5.0

Account closing would like refund of money depositedUsed this app for over a year and have $1500 in mins I’ve added but now... the app is making me subscribed and pay monthly to see my txts that sent to it and also to keep my number I must Give the app more money outta my pocket.. loved this app but not anymore. I’d like to know ...how do I and Where do I withdraw my 1500$? I’d like my money back to put towards something else thank you..Version: 4.7.0

I am very disturbedI sat there working to translate 2 languages. I was told I'll be getting 20 credits for every 1000 words. I GOT ZERO. Not only that, I had approx. 60 credits. I didn't use it for 2 days (except doing the daily check-ins for free credits. I come back and I have 4 credits in my balance account! I got 6 messages. How did I lose approx. 55 credits. I didn't use any today, and I only have 2.7!!!! They're cheaters! One thing for sure, don't be part of the translation team. I'm going to erase this app. But be smart! I'm very sorry, but it's very disturbing and disappointing..Version: 3.7.0

My personal experienceVery pathetic service as I bought the number but no text message getting This is my first. And last time to use this app Don’t waste your money.Version: 3.7.0

RefundI need a refund. I wanted to get a free number and I was immediately charged for a year subscription. The number I was given was a US number and didn’t give me the option to put a Canadian number. Went I deleted the wrong one and added the other I was immediately charged. Never specify the benefits of having a subscription and anything. I wanted to cancel it but I was not able..Version: 4.4.0

Serious credit issues as possible fraudulent scamSince I've started using the app months ago I have lost and not be given over 150+ credits. Time after Time I've won 5, 10, 1s, etc. that never added to my total. Over and over after winning, no change. Spending minutes and minutes watching ads/videos to complete the credit requirements etc. only to not receive anything after completion. Then if that wasn't enough, time and time again I'll make a single call that was busy, or answered and spoke for less than a minute and my credits dropped from 15 down to 5, or 10 down to 3. Or during one of the busy calls, it dropped twice at once. Or sending 4 text messages would deduct 5-10 credits. You've seriously stole my credits and promised winning credits and time from me over and over misreporting, misrepresenting, making fraudulent claims towards credit I've never received or lost..Version: 3.7.0
