Google voice购买永久的两个GV号码都是永久号码吗?

一直以来,Google voice中文网都有一个原则,就是不以讹传讹。就比如说关于Google voice购买永久号码过程中10刀换号的Google voice号码是否也是永久号码的问题上。

Google voice中文网一直强调只有谷歌官方没明确的说明,就不要乱说一样。之前,很多客户来问我,Google voice购买永久后,2个号码就都是永久号码。【来源于谷歌voice社区的非官方回答】

而我也多次回复过,我自己花10刀的换号号码只要不保持使用,一样被回收【收到回收的邮件提醒】。因此,这一说法明显站不住脚的。

前些天,一个老铁TM在Google voice中文网上留言,一直深究这个问题,具体可以看:https://www.googlevoice.cn/buy-permanent-use/

首先留言,也是从谷歌voice社区得到如下答案:

新号也是永久的,我参考的是Google Voice Help里的客服的说法:

“You can pay $20 to port in a mobile phone number. Ported-in numbers are considered “permanent”, meaning Google will not reclaim the numbers, since they weren’t Google’s numbers to begin with, and you have paid a fee to port in the number. Similarly, you can pay $10 to change a number, and that new GV number will automatically be permanent.”

(来源:https://support.google.com/voice/thread/1420165/when-will-my-google-voice-number-expire?hl=en&msgid=9844021)

根据最后一句“Similarly, you can pay $10 to change a number, and that new GV number will automatically be permanent.”证明了你花十美元换的号码也是自动永久的。

我去看了下来源,系民间的所谓专家回复的,很明显可信度不高。就回复了TM老铁,没想到这位大佬去咨询谷歌voice官方客服了,得到如下回答:

谷歌客服给我回复了,如你说所的,20刀的老号是永久的,10刀的新号是普通的。(以下选自客服邮件,删减了开头寒暄话):

To answer your question, yes the number will be permanent since you paid $20 fee to keep it as original Google Voice number. However, the other number which you paid $10 fee to change it to a new number this will not be permanent and you have to at least use that number once in every 6 months so that it will not be taken from you.

我想,这下应该清楚了吧。

希望大家不要被蒙蔽,规则是谷歌定的,肯定要以他家为准啊!
