My 403 (freephoneline) number is set to forward to my cell phone.....the number registered with my google account is my 403 number. I've called my 403 number to make sure it is forwarding to my cell.....so the problem lies with my google account. I'd actually been successfully using my google voice with my iPhone (gv mobile app) for a month or two until it stopped. It stopped after I upgraded my gv mobile app......but even when I try through the old web app I can't get it to work. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks Pwn,

The VERY first step involves some kind of search process. It asks for a two part phone number - the first can be an area code or city, the second is the name or number.....what am I supposed to enter here? It's VERY unclear. I do a search, it comes up empty, and I can't press Next. Have I given enough explanation here? I'm at work and can't get behind HotSpot right now, so I can't log in to give a more detailed explanation. All I know is that Step one after I press Get a Google Voice Number is this search process and the Google Hlep is completely unclear about what it is I'm supposed ot put here. HELP!! You guys rock, btw...thanks so much! ARGH…..Okay, I think I must have misunderstood what to do. The VERY first step involves some kind of search process.

I have a freephoneline number in the 403 area code, and I'm behind HotSpot Shield with a verified US IP. Google allows me to get a Google Voice Number, but when I search for the 403 area code, no numbers come up. It looks like this loophole has, VERY UNFORTUNATELY, been closed. :( Any other people trying this? I’ve tried this.

So it will work on Wind mobile! Actually, I also had a chance to play with one at a wind mobile booth. It has a very large screen, plays 720p videos, it's an awesome phone! http://www.htc.com/us/products/t-mobile-hd2#tech-specs Hey, according to the HTC website, the HTC HD2 does use the AWS frequency.

To diagnose the problem, I've tried calling my freephoneline.ca # and there's nothing wrong there because it definitely is forwarding to my own canadian cell #. My freephoneline.ca # (403) is registered with my google voice account but when I call my googlevoice # it doesn't forward through to my 403#. Has google closed this little exploit?

I only picked it because it was easy to remember. Then I gave it out to a few people to test. They got the Bell "We're sorry this is a long distance phone call, please press 1 before the number". Which is what I was afraid of (expected). They said 'screw that I'm not calling it and get charged'. Which I imagine EVERYONE will think and do. Kind of useless in Canada... Or am I wrong??
