Transfer your service to another account
If you’re looking to transfer your service to another account, first make sure your account balance is paid in full. A new owner can only accept the transfer if there is no outstanding balance on the account.
The only circumstance in which you can transfer an account with a balance is if:
- You are the current account owner who has lost access to your email, AND
- You own both the original email and the new email (the names on both emails match)
To transfer your GFiber service to another email address, the new address must be associated with a Google Account.
This means you can use any Gmail address, or any email address from another provider (ex: name@provider.com) so long as it is associated with a Google Account.
To transfer service to a Gmail address:
This also works for a non-Gmail address that is already associated with a Google Account
- Simply contact GFiber customer support to complete the transfer.
To transfer to a non-Gmail address:
That is not yet associated with a Google Account
- Go to the Google Account page.
- Below the Username field, click Use my current email address instead.
- Enter the email address you want to associate with the new Google Account; then complete the remaining steps to complete the process.
- Please contact GFiber customer support to complete the transfer of your Fiber service to your email address.
When to transfer your GFiber service
When you request to transfer your service to another account, an email is sent to the new user with a prompt to accept the account change. Because of the way our billing cycle works, we’re unable to process account transfers in the first 4 days of your billing cycle). We recommend you make the transfer before or after the first 4 days of your billing cycle, otherwise the new user won’t be able to accept the account transfer until the 5th day of the cycle.
Billing and refunds
Transfer requests before your autopay date
- If you're transferring your service to a new account before your autopay date, you'll need to make a manual payment so there's no balance on the account.
- The new user needs to accept the transfer before the end of the billing cycle. If they don't, they won't be able to accept the transfer until the new charges are paid.

Transfer your GFiber Phone number to another account
If you transferred your GFiber service (including GFiber Phone) to another account and want your GFiber Phone number associated with that account, please initiate the transfer in Google Voice. All GFiber Phone numbers are Google Voice numbers, so initiating the transfer from Google Voice ensures your privacy and security.
You cannot transfer your GFiber Phone number to another account that already has a Google Voice number associated with it.
