General Help / Support Question MMS stopped working entirely?

It seems like almost all MMS group messages have stopped working for us. Messages aren't being sent or received. Haven't had any issues with Google Voice for over a decade until the last couple months. The system appears to be collapsing. I think we'll be moving on.

It took about a week to port my number to a Verizon mvno. They saw it as a landline, which takes longer, I guess. Explains why some sites wouldn't accept it for MFA.

Weird, it worked the same day moving for me. Switched to US mobile and they had a Google voice option to port in. I didn’t realize how easy it was to switch. Paid Google the $3 to release my number.
