Be sure to set up service before you travel. – Google Voice Review

My wife and I are currently vacationing in a location that, sadly, has no AT&T cellular coverage. Fortunately, there is WiFi so I thought perhaps I could use a VOIP app to call a local pizza joint for a delivery. What a mess that idea turned out to become. I download this Google Voice app thinking it might be the quick and easy (free) solution to my problem. In order to set up the app you must link the service to an existing phone number for verification. So Google needs to send a text message to my phone so I can verify that I am who I say I am or something like that. Problem remains, though.. I’m in an area that has no cellular coverage so I cannot receive the text message. If I had cell service here I wouldn’t need the VOIP app. Ridiculous.
