For OBI200 could not find a single US phone number in Google Voice for a new no

(1/3) > >>

YASH:
I just bought two brand new OBI200 pieces
and when tried to find the phone numbers  in Google voice, after creating my google e-mail accounts  there, I could not find a single US number of any area codes, in google voice.
 all the numbers in  GV shown are Zombies - means are already taken  away by others.

 Does anyone have any idea/solution about finding the new number ( any area code, will do )

I do not have any cell  ( to carryover the number of my landline,.. via 2 step procedures )
and also my other landline is ooma
and hence don't want to carry over the same number with OBI, as it's free of any charges already, with OOMA..

No, there is a train-load of available numbers, all over the country.  They are legitimate, available numbers, not "zombies".  Google added tens of thousands of numbers after the supply previously dried up.  I just now tried to find a new number, and even in a major metro area, the 213 Los Angeles area code, there were numbers available.

You must be doing something wrong.  Either you have already used your forwarding number in the past to obtain a GV number, and it is now banned, or you have some other issue with your Google Voice account.

Take your issue to the official Google Voice Help Forum.

I also found numbers in 843 and 919 last week. I hope they weren't the last two :)

I have the same problem,,....

Sir,  I could not find a single working number, ( the nos. shown are Zombies and after selecting brings the errors,.. )
I tried with 300+ diff. numbers of all  diff. area codes,..
at diff time, with diff browers, on diff. computers  and on diff. day,.. and also with diff. gmail e-mail addresses

One OBI rep also agreed that,
GV has all bogus numbers and nthg the working one,
unless they revise their list and put the new real available working numbers,..

I am surprisesd with your conflicting views,
as this shows an alert  on  other customers of OBI, who  buying and relying on GV as a  free use.  
I bought two OBI200 pieces and still can not have the phone numbers, for it now !!

SteveInWA:
For the love of Google, stop spamming the forum with this ridiculous baloney.

Stick to one discussion thread.

We'll try to help, but you need to be able to read and understand and follow instructions.  If you can't do that, return your OBi devices and get a refund.

There zombie number issue was fixed months ago.  You have some other problem; there are thousands of numbers available.

Answer my questions in your other discussion thread.
