Porting a Vonage Number to Google Voice

If you are following my Vonage to GV transfer, here is an update.

I also managed to transfer my Vonage Number to Google Voice thru T-Mobile.

The way it worked for me is, I transferred the number to a T-Mobile Prepaid. It took 2 days (Cost: $4, T-Mobile prepaid). Then transferred from T-Mobile to Google Voice. (Cost: $20).

from Vonage to Google Voice

I recently replaced my home phone line (running on Vonage) with Google Voice. I am using  OBi110 Voice Service Bridge and VoIP Telephone Adapter purchased from Amazon as a ATA to connect to Google Voice. I am expecting to save about $15 per month (Google Voice is free for 2012, estimated $15 will be spent on international calling).

What I am losing is ability to call 911 and unlimited calls. For 911 calls, mobile phones will be used essentially. Not having access to unlimited calls will allow/force us to monitor actual phone usage.

Let's see how the experiment goes.
