How to Port Your NUMBER in 4 Steps

Check if Your Number is Eligible for Porting
Most numbers are eligible for porting, but it's essential to verify with your current and new service providers. You can check eligibility on provider websites:

  • Verizon: Switch to Verizon page

  • AT&T: Transfer Your Number page

  • T-Mobile: Keep Your Number page

  • Note: Some numbers may not be eligible if the new provider doesn’t serve the geographic area.

Notify Your Current Provider
Let your current provider know you're switching services. Confirm your account details, such as the name on the account, billing address, and any port-out PIN required to authorize the transfer.

Provide Information to Your New Provider
Your new provider will need the following:

  • Account number and billing information

  • Port-out PIN (if applicable)

  • Signed Letter of Authorization giving permission for the port

Additional details might include:

  • Number(s) to port

  • Type of number (landline, mobile, VoIP)

  • Whether the account is under a personal or business name

Wait for Port Completion
Once your new provider schedules the port, you will be notified of the porting date. Avoid canceling your current service until the port is complete to prevent any issues.

Why Port Your Number?

  • Switch Providers Without Losing Your Number
    Whether moving to a more affordable mobile carrier or transitioning to a virtual phone service, porting allows you to keep your number while switching providers.

Common FAQs About Phone Number Porting

  • Can I port a landline to a mobile phone?
    Yes, most mobile carriers allow you to port landlines to mobile phones, but your existing long-distance service will not transfer. Your new provider will manage long-distance calls.

  • Can I cancel my old service before the port is complete?
    No, it’s crucial to keep your old service active until the port is finalized. Canceling too early may disrupt the porting process.

  • How long does the porting process take?
    Porting times vary by provider and number type, ranging from a few hours to several business days.

By following these steps and ensuring all information is accurate, you can port your number smoothly.
