I’m going to travel in France I just need a plan to receive text messages for my bank. I tried to reach customer service for days. They are useless.
Now can I use a prepaid plan to receive a message text in France some representative said yes some say no.

Hi there,
No. You cannot use a prepaid plan to receive a text in France. Prepaid plans only work in the USA and Canada, so if you attempt to connect to a network besides those countries it won’t work, and as such, you won’t receive a text. You would have to switch to postpaid for it to work or find an alternative like Fongo etc.
With the postpaid service, receiving text messages is free anywhere in the world as long as it does not require data to do so. This might be where some of the reps got mixed up.
