The service was quick and professional. The information on the webpage regarding the options is a bit confusing sometimes. And some pages I could not open.

Good service, but activation process could be clearer


Overall, I had a good experience with Sonetel.

The support team was very helpful, responsive, and solved my issue in a professional and friendly way. Once everything was set up, the service worked as expected.

The only thing that could be improved is the activation process. Even after completing all compliance requirements and having everything marked as approved in the system, there was an additional step with the service provider that was not clearly communicated. This made the process a bit confusing and more complicated than expected.

Aside from that, everything works well, and I appreciate the support I received.

The app is good

The app is good, and what impressed me most was the customer service team.

I encountered a problem and contacted them via email. They were very helpful, and what I appreciated most was their speed in responding and resolving issues.
I personally recommend using their services and dealing with them.

I hope they expand their reach and offer more services.

I needed help with verification

I needed help with verification. Vasundhara K. was objectively helpful and also compassionate in explaining what I needed to do and doing as much as she could to make it easier for me. I was able to solve the problem easily with her help.

The customer service is exceptional

The customer service is exceptional, I was facing issues in getting our address verified but the support staff was even following up out of office hours to help and easing our relation with Sonetel.
Special thanks to the support staff, Bhargav for his excellent assistance at the time when it required most.

The Gold Standard of Support – Kind, Efficient, and Truly Dedicated

I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional service I received as a new customer. Not only was Sonia highly efficient and professional, but they were also incredibly kind and well-behaved throughout the entire process. What impressed me most was their dedication—they treated my case with genuine urgency, even prioritizing my request on their day off. It is rare to find someone so helpful and person-centered. I cannot thank them enough for their support and highly recommend their work to anyone looking for a truly dedicated professional.

Unreliable service

I have been using their service since past 8 months approx. It's absolutely unreliable. I am not able to call on any US number despite on premium plan. Moreover support is super slow.

Activated within 24 hours — exceptional customer support

I was initially nervous about setting up a virtual Australian number from overseas, but the process was seamless thanks to the Sonetel team — particularly Sajida Kh from the Regulations team. She was incredibly prompt, professional, and proactive in handling my verification requests. My number was fully activated within 24 hours of submitting my documents. That kind of responsive, personalised support makes all the difference. Highly recommend Sonetel for anyone needing a reliable virtual number quickly.
