Good customer service, but US credit cards aren't accepted
This IS a legitimate website. It's not a scam. Amelia, Leo and Reina, especially Reina were all very helpful. It was $39, which is a good deal and they emailed me back super-fast and even on a Sunday. I needed an Italian phone number for school, but unfortunately, they do not accept credit cards from the US. I have two banks with sufficient funds, and called both my banks, but they said the charges were refused by Calilio, but Calilio said it was my banks. They told me to try using different credit cards, but nothing worked. They won't charge you, only if you're able to use the Italian phone number they provide, so it's okay. So, in the end, I was not able to receive an Italian phone number and will need to wait until I get to Italy to buy one. If you're NOT an American, this will work for you! If you are an American with only US credit cards, hope for the best!
Hi Tisha, Thank you so much for your honest feedback and for highlighting the excellent support provided by Amelia, Leo and especially Reina. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with them! We’re truly sorry to hear about the payment difficulties you experienced. Calilio uses a secure, SCA-compliant (Strong Customer Authentication) payment gateway which requires 3D Secure verification for all transactions. Unfortunately, some U.S. credit card issuers may block these international charges by default even when accounts have sufficient funds. This can cause confusion, and we understand how frustrating that can be. Please know that we do not charge customers unless the service is successfully activated, and your trust means everything to us. Our team has already reached out to you via email with alternative payment options that may better suit your situation. We’re here to help you get set up quickly, especially with something as important as an international number for school. Thank you again for your patience and for confirming we're a trusted provider. We’re committed to making this right and look forward to supporting you further. Warm regards, The Calilio Team
