I agree with you Silver Fox about the provincialism. The number of services I've run into that block foreign IP addresses are amazing. Then there is my one credit card of mine which takes the cake. It declared a "fraud" on my card because I used it with a swipe inside the US and five minutes later with a swipe abroad. The US swipe was the gas bump at the Ambassador bridge on the Canadian border and the foreign ("Canadian") swipe was at the Metro grocery store on the other side of the border. To avoid my tendency to eat junk food in the car on long drives, I pulled into Metro to buy a bag of carrots and sliced apples for my drive.

Is Toggle reliable about texts to its US number? Piranha also has a long shelf life and free inbound calls on a US number (like Toggle) in many countries.
