Safe Talk is a new service in the UK that allows you to generate a temporary phone number to use for 7 days to give to people you don’t trust/know.
It’s simple – text CALL to 80876 and get a temporary number that diverts to your mobile phone for 7 days, and keep your own number safe – until you know if they’re nuts or not!
Each number costs £1.50, and you can choose to either extend your usage of the number after seven days or cancel it. Avoiding confrontation seems very British-y, but this service should do well in the US for daters.
