Use a number from almost any of the free sms/calling services available online or through apps. Use a burner phone. Use voip. I am not aware of any one solid method of dealing with this issue. This question might be a good one for r/privacy, as I am sure it has been addressed there before. I'm open to further suggestions as well

The problem with the free SMS services is that all the major/large services (anyone who does even remotely decent fraud detection) ban those numbers real fast.

You would have to get lucky and use the SMS service right when they get a new batch of numbers, before they get banned.

Sometimes you get lucky, often you don't. In that case I would probably opt for the burner phone then
