“best solution to have an active mobile number while i am abroad? hi guys. my parents live in Westwood, MA while i currently live abroad n the Middle East. What is the best/cheapest deal to have a mobile number (no need for data plans) and maintain it while i am abroad? my mother is visiting me in 3 days, if you can propose a good solution i will buy it online and ship it to Westwood so she can bring it with her to the Middle East. p.s. i applied for some job applications in the US and need to include a phone number in case they tried to contact me. I appreciate your help thank you”
