How to Retrieve a Google Voice Number?
« on: December 31, 2020, 12:32:20 PM »
We had a Google Voice number connected to a Google Workspace account which expired a couple of days ago. All the help articles say we have 45 days to retrieve the number, but there is no option to "add a number" or retrieve the number anywhere in the settings in the Google Voice account, which is how we were instructed to retrieve it. Does anyone know how it can be done?

It happened to me once. I had a tech problem, googled it, finally found one post on some Q&A website from like 4 years before. And it was my own post! :D
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

That's happened to me as well.

(And IIRC when I searched and found it the 3rd time it reminded me about the note I made after the second time "for future reference" :) )
