It's all free and you can get your number instantly. Your messages will be sent to your email at no cost.

Ok. There you go! Now you have a free phone in US. Cool ha!

Well let's keep on going to the 2nd part of this free guide: Your US based address.

Step 2.- Get a US based mailing address

A US based mailing address can be obtained throught a mail forwarding company. A mailing address in United States is very usefull for a number of reasons:

• You can shop online and ask your goods to be delivered to your mailing address in the US and then forwarded to your home address.
• This is specially good in some online stores or sites that don't ship outside US. Like a lot of eBay sellers. This also is a great chioce if the shippings cost is just too expensive.
• You can also use your US address to sign up in services that don't allow non US residents.

Recommended services

Access USA

This is a very high quality service. They have a one time fee and montly or yearly subscriptions. Their rates are really good. Specially if you are going to use thier services often

USA 2 me

This mail forwarding company offer a "Bronze" plan that has one time set up fee ($25) and no monthly fees. Which means, if you never receive any mail to the address, you never have to pay for the service. Of course if you do need to have mail forwarded to you there is a fee.

US Global mail

I like them because of the diferent rates and services you can choose. The signup proccess is not difficult and you can ask for your goodies via normal mail at a cheap price or via express service like Fedex or DHL.

Lanbox

This service is great for people living in latinamerica. They have no setup fees. However their charges are not the cheaper.

Remember that there are other services around and you should check to see if it fits your needs.
