how many of you guys out there use a second phone when contacting a provider?
Married guys do you use one so the wife won't catch you? TIAso I don't use second phone, but if I was married, I def would have hobby phone.

a large majority of married mongers use burner phones or a burner ap.
Even though I don't have an SO, I use a burner phone.
Enables you to walk away from a SHTF scenario if you've been careful and no one can connect that number to you IRL.

A burner phone as a second phone is an absolute must. It has no connection to the real you or credit cards or anything.
You can buy a TracPhone at Target for $25 to $100 cash depending on features. A year of text and phone is $99, again paid in cash. Do not do anything on this phone, except arranging with providers. When they stopped 3G, I bought a new phone and was able to transfer the phone number to the new 4G phone. The tech at Target did this in a few minutes.
The cost of this is less than a half hour visit. Well worth it for the security.
Your burner phone number becomes your ID for all providers you talk to. Should there ever be a big issue, you can just trash the phone and get a new one. Explain to the providers that this is replacing your old number.
