Recently, Google Voice has been under a bit of scrutiny.
Some users have found some glitches in the service, one of which is the
inability to receive text messages. This issue was confirmed by a number of
people.

people.
However, none of these people go into detail on the matter. Presently,
Google is in the process of probing these reports of Google Voice not working.
This issue is not particular to a device or carrier, though it does seem to be
affecting a small number of people. Though, it is yet to be seen whether these
devices have something in common.

Several users reported this same problem, saying that it
only affects incoming messages. These people can still send text messages, but
cannot receive replies to their texts. One of the users that reported this
issue pointed out that her businesses and the Google Voice numbers have
suffered as a result of this issue. Employees have been unable to receive text
messages with Google Voice for hours.

Also, the author of the thread posted on Google Forums also
stated that some users rebooted their devices and tried checking for new
messages through their computers using the same accounts. Neither of these
methods solved the problem. Google Voice

The company also promises that an update will be provided as
soon as one is available. Having recently launched Android 8.0 Oreo, Google’s
software teams hare currently on the lookout for bugs in several places.
However, the time taken to resolve these individual cases greatly varies on a
per-issue basis.

It is uncertain right now how fast the company will fix the
Google Voice problem, but expectantly that should be soon, as Google Voice is
an important part of so many businesses.
