Porting Your Existing Number
to a New Cell Phone
Getting a new cell phone with a different carrier
no longer means losing your existing cell phone number. It's easy
to transfer (or "port") existing phone numbers between carriers,
or even to transfer a phone number from a landline to a cell phone.
Known as wireless number portability, this process is quick and convenient
when you order new cell phone service through CellularXPO.com.
Steps to Transfer Your Phone Number to a New Wireless Provider
- When placing the order for your new phone, make sure to click
on the box that says “Yes! Switch my old cell phone number
to my new phone and plan.” You will be asked to provide your
current wireless phone number and account number, which you can
find on your previous monthly statements. The order will be submitted
to your new carrier, and you will keep your existing cell phone
number.
IMPORTANT: IF YOU WISH TO KEEP YOUR EXISTING
NUMBER, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU MAKE THE REQUEST AT THE TIME OF
THE ORDER, RATHER THAN CHANGING THE NUMBERS ON YOUR ACCOUNT AFTER
YOU RECEIVE YOUR PHONES.
- When you receive your phone, your phone number will be ported
within 24 hours. You will be provided with information to check
the real-time status of your scheduled port request.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT CANCEL SERVICE WITH YOUR
CURRENT PROVIDER UNTIL AFTER YOUR WIRELESS PHONE NUMBER HAS BEEN
SUCCESSFULLY PORTED TO YOUR NEW PROVIDER.
- After your phone number is ported, you will no longer be able
to use your phone number with your old service provider. You must
contact your old service provider to cancel service. You will be
responsible for payment of all outstanding charges including any
fees that may be assessed by your old service provider for canceling
an existing wireless service.
Get started by shopping for a phone and choosing a plan. Follow
the instructions for porting your number during the checkout process.
You will receive confirmation of your number porting request after
placing your order.
