Regardless of what that page says, it's been common knowledge that people have lost their number when trying to port it out of Google Voice. It's interesting to see it's still an issue and applies to Project Fi as well.
My Google Voice account is older than 7 years. I specifically remember choosing to get a new number instead of porting my number to Google Voice because of the stories about people unable to port it out.
I haven't heard of any court action, but if your number is already reassigned to someone what's your recourse?
- sliken 9y agoThe people I've heard that lost their google voice number, cancelled. FCC guarantees you can keep your number if you migrate, it says nothing about cancelling service.
- wybiral 9y agoProject Fi gives you, in their own words a "contract-free plan". It isn't supposed to be some kind of year-long service or something.
- lern_too_spel 9y agoExactly. This is no different from any other telephone service provider. HN should not be a support forum for people who don't know how to use their ISP or phone carrier.
- lern_too_spel 9y agoThe number wasn't already reassigned.
