Uber and prepaid internet service
I am planning to travel to the US and buy a prepaid internet SIM card so I am able to use Uber. Since I will be replacing my current SIM card with that one that only provides internet service I won't be able to make/receive calls or text messages. Will that be a problem for using Uber?
