What country are u in that u have to go through whatsapp? Have only ever used my personal cell for stuff like this, if I have to download an app to do something you can bet I ain’t doing it lol. If there’s anything I have learned its that if it needs an app, it doesn’t fucking work.

Could be germany. WhatsApp is very widely used here, because back then in the olden days SMS flat rate was expensive. And WhatsApp was ideal, because it worked even on throttled data rates, so you could use it even if you ran out of data. So making it basically a free alternative to SMS.

Interesting! I didn’t even have a phone with data until after the unlimited minutes and texts were standard on most plans lol.
