... with all their beta BS!
Don't release a product until it actually works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been using Google Voice for a while and recently they just deleted ALL MY SETTINGS FOR CALL FORWARDING.
Majorly PISSES me off, since I did not notice and got no warning about this.
The only "notification" was that I got google voice mails without my phone ever ringing.

BS!

Don't use a product in beta if you're complaining about it.

Drive down to their headquarter and demand a full refund. Bonus points for bringing torches/pitchforks.

Wow, if this majorly PISSES you off, I'd hate to see how you handle real problems.

You're kidding, right? You're ranting about a product that is in beta, which by all right should contain a shit load of problems and bugs, and which you used after agreeing to its conditions of use, one of which was probably that you are the only one liable for your data and that because it's a beta sudden data loss may occur?

Get a life.

You intentionally signed up to use a beta product and now you're whining about it being a beta? ROFL!! You fail.

Please...


Unless you dealt with the RIDICULOUS postini/google outage in Oct 2009 you can keep moving.


No joke, corporate spam protection and your services are down for TWO DAYS with NO UPDATES, NO RESOLUTION, and 12 hour+++ hold times???


I'm still a bit perturbed about it.

The responses have been pretty tame so far, but I cannot see how this could possibly end well.
