As a new contributor I thought I would add my recent experience to this thread, since I am still lacking any good current reviews to share.
I have been regular exclusively at Perla for last three years. Formerly I had experimented with some of the Asian holistics in Scarboro, but those usually left something to be desired - subject perhaps of another thread. And, as many here have attested, once you hit the premier chain, its difficult to resist going back ... heh heh.
Anyways to the point. I have been using a magicJack VoIP service for years now. Among the most economical possible alternatives for a second phone, and there is an app that allows use of the service on a smartphone. The only catch is that Canadian areas codes cannot send/receive SMS, which means opting to a US area code if you plan to use this service completely.
Now the website verification form did not allow me to register my US number, however I simply started communicating via email with Premier management regarding this. It took about a week but my US number was accepted on their list and I was able to finally break the long covid-imposed hobbying pause with the US number I have been using for years.
Hope others here find this useful.
