To retain those features, you must make sure that your new provider can also offer the same features. This means that if you are taking your number to a new provider, the features that you had, such as call forwarding or text messaging, are cleared when you port out your number. It’s important to understand that your service provider attaches features to your phone number, and these features do not follow the number automatically. Your phone number’s current features will be cleared.
Unless you have a special arrangement with them, this usually happens automatically because if there is no phone number on the account, then the account has no reason to exist. If you only have one phone number with your current provider, and you are taking that number with you to the new provider, then your account with the previous provider is going to be cancelled as soon as you transfer your number out. Many people do not consider this fact when making the phone service switch. If it’s your only number with them, the losing carrier will cancel your service.
This post assumes that you are keeping your existing number when you switch to a new provider. First of all, if you are moving to a new service provider but do not need to keep your existing phone number, then there isn’t much to it-you cancel your old service, and start up with your new one.Īlthough keeping your number when switching providers is not complicated, there are a couple of extra steps to complete the process seamlessly.
