Project Fi is a non-starter for anyone who relies on their phone for critical functions such as telephone service. Phone numbers are still king, and losing mine as a result of some spurious Google account deletion would result in calls from my child's school being met with dead silence.
- ariwilson 9y agoSo do you have an actual example of this happening with Project Fi?
- oconnore 9y agoI’m in Portugal right now, and my partner, who just recently switched to Fi, has no access to her previous google voice number, and her main number (and Fi service in general) has been on and off. Several people have complained they can’t reach her. I guess the previous poster was referring to losing a number permanently, but still. Seems like they are still ironing out basic services like phone numbers.
- lev99 9y agoWhen you switch to Fi you have the option of moving your google voice number to a different account. When you leave Fi you have the option of moving your original number back to a traditional carrier. Or, at least that's how it worked in 2016 when I tried Fi.
