I'm from California and recently relocated to Chile. My service provider is Verizon. With my Verizon SIM card I get no service what-so-ever.

Before I left I called Verizon to have my Iphone 4s unlocked so I could use an international provider. Now that I am using an Entel SIM card I cannot receive any of my texts from my Verizon number.

Is there anyway I can link my Verizon account to a computer so that I can receive text messages without having reception? This is pretty bothersome because it is difficult to stay in contact with my friends from the states :(

tl; dr
Help me receive text messages on a computer without having service on the phone
