My Google voice number expired, want to renew it?

need a new Google voice. Mine just expired some days ago, don't know to renew it.

Short summary:

  1. Open the Google Voice app on your Android phone.
  2. If the app doesn't work in your location, download and install a VPN app from the Google Play Store.
  3. Open the VPN app, activate it, and return to the Google Voice app.
  4. Try opening the Google Voice app again to see if it works with the VPN enabled.
  5. If you want a new Google Voice number, open the app, sign in, and follow the on-screen instructions to select and set up a new number.

Open that app, please, then tap on your profile and take a screenshot of what you see.
So, you mean that you don't have access to your account in the Voice app. Correct?

Customer Replay

Yes I can't access it anymore

Did you get any error messages when tried to open the app?

Customer Replay

Yes, that I can't access Google voice at the moment.

Ok. Thank you

Good.
*****, the point with your app is that it doesn't work in your current location. It didn't expire!
If you create a new account the result will be the same. This app doesn't work in South Africa
