So you made the full switch to Google Voice, but decided that it isn't for you. Want to delete your account without losing the new number you made everyone memorize? MsCassLopez points out a lesser-known feature that lets you do just that.

Google finally added the ability to delete your Voice account, but if you want to keep the number associated with your account, you can actually port your number away from Google Voice. It costs $3 to do, unless you've already ported your number to Google Voice, in which case it's free.

To do it, just head to google.com/voice/unlock and click the Unlock My Number button. Once you're done, you'll need to talk to your service provider (e.g. Verizon or AT&T) and have them port your number back. That way, you can continue using your phone without having to give anyone a new number.
