You can transfer current GV # to new email account.


Not really, or not for free at least.  And if you delete a number of an account it is on hold for re-use by another for 90 days.  If I'm missing something, I'm all ears.

For future reference it's under Google Voice Help > How to > Port, change, or transfer your number > "I want to transfer my Google Voice number to another account" and "I want to transfer my Google Voice number to another Google Account"

Super! It worked! I'd been trying to do something like that for a while.

Now on a somewhat related note, how do I change my name (not forum name) or email account info on OBitalk?  When I started all this I didn't think I would take it as far as I did with several GV accounts, several devices, etc.  Now I'd like to add some logic back to the setup...

Please clarify - was there a fee or not to transfer your GV number from one Google account to another?

Bolt:
Yes, it's quite easy and quite FREE.

Google even made it sound difficult than necessary.  Check through several disclaimers, (have all account info handy, this is irreversible, etc)

Then it has you log in with account with phone number you want, then prompts to log in with account you want to send it to.  Then you have check boxes where you pick the number you want and select where to send it to.

They say it could take 5 days to complete, but mine was done instantly.
