You should know that your service agreement is still in effect with your old carrier. If you still have a contract with your current cellular provider, if you try to switch you cell phone number you may get charged a cancellation fee. |

You can only KEEP your cell phone number if you remain in your local calling area. |

Keep a copy of your current cellular carrier phone bill. The carriers are relying on billing systems to port your number and switch service. In order to correctly 'sync and switch' your cell phone number you must give the EXACT NAME and ADDRESS on your current cellular provider bill. If your bill says 100 Street for example, it must be entered in as 100 Street and not 100 St. If entered incorrectly, it will result in delays and your incoming phone calls may not get routed correctly. |

Do not terminate service before signing up for a new service. Your new cellular carrier will do this when the porting process starts. |

When switching carriers, you will probably need to get a new phone. Most carriers only have certain phones that work with their systems. Use the free phone that is included in the plan. After all, it's free, and it will work best with the carriers network. A new phone will likely have the latest cell phone technology. For example, we sell T-Mobile phones which support GSM mobile cell phone technology - GSM allows you to call anywhere outside the U.S, where other technologies may not. |

If you would like to keep your current cell phone AND number when switching carriers, it's mportant to know what type of cell phone technology your phone is, and who supports it. For example, if you have a TDMA phone, you will need to switch to a carrier that supports TDMA technology, GSM to GSM and so on. |
