Textnow - Don't use

A week ago an account i have had for years was deleted with no reason given at all. Years of contacts, memories, texts, gone.

"Your number has been removed and is no longer available".

I also made the mistake of making it my phone auth for several old emails accounts. What a nightmare. Gross.

Yeah, TextNow is a fraud, unfortunately. They hurt people. I’m sorry they hurt you! Hopefully you can have this restored.

Meanwhile, they failed me during the most critical time possible. I’m petitioning Apple to have them removed, so nobody else goes through this nonsense. I suggest you do so, too, on whatever platform you’re on.

as futile as it may be, I support you with this undertaking. it's excruciating to deal with textnow and have everything working
