Other service providers
Porting from Google voice
To port your Google Voice number (US) to Fre, follow these steps:
Fill out the LOA form: https://www.twilio.com/resources/docs/Letter_of_Authorization.pdf
Send a screenshot of your Google account that shows your number has been unlocked.
Send a screenshot of your Google Voice account, and make sure the first and last name in the Letter of Authorization match and your Google account is the same.

Porting from other service providers
You can port your US number from your existing service provider to the web application by following these steps:
Send an email to crm-support@freshworks.com with a request for number porting.
You will be requested to fill an LOA form and send your billing statement for the previous month to crm-support@freshworks.com.
After the document verification, we will add the number to your web application and inform you once the porting date is scheduled.
