If you have port in difficulties with GV number call 800-518-7519 and them you have a land line and they will complete your port.
GV port is not complete until you get a confirmation email from google, and you get a text message from Metro 611 that the number transfer is complete.

The short version, you must call Metro to make sure any/all the number(s) you are porting over that previously succeed Port Reservation but failed Payment are not locked now to metro reservation once locked to metro they will not work with a new order or another wireless company. This deal is killing me softly, now I remember why I avoided Metro for so long
EDIT: after reading the comments on this thread, I see that many people are reporting that a google voice number can be ported over to metro again (like the good old days).

I only found out about it this morning when I tried to get new GV numbers on a couple of existing accounts but was asked to upload ID documents. I think I had had GV numbers on these accounts before Metro disallowed them for promos over a year ago but didn't bother to set up new numbers.
As posted in another thread, GV numbers may take long to be ported in and you may have to call Metro to speed up the process. My first Metro order is scheduled for delivery tomorrow. I have activated the line without any problem, but my GV number is still active and there's no email from Google about it being ported out. I can't login to my Metro account as my GV number is not getting the verification code, not until the port-in is complete.
oh crap. my iphone is coming tomorrow too. Also ported my spare gv number.
i haven't bought a phone from Metro since 2023 moto g stylus. I forgot what it's like to use a metro account.
it sucks that we can't even login to metro with an email address. This is reetarded

Verizon has add a second number for only $10. Add it and then port it in.

Maybe that isn't true anymore but it was 10 years ago.
