Wireless Numberr Portability
Wireless Number Transfers

Effective November 24, 2003

On Monday, November 24, 2003, Federal legislation went into effect allowing wireless phone customers to transfer their numbers to BroadVoice. There are several important details that you need to keep in mind when transferring your number:

  • BroadVoice is NOT a wireless carrier.
  • Transferring your number to us indicates a wish to use your current wireless number with our broadband Internet based service. Our service can only operate with a high-speed Internet connection.
  • Transfers may take up to 30 days.
  • DO NOT CANCEL YOUR WIRELESS SERVICE until the transfer is complete, or else you could lose your number.
  • Be careful about early cancellation fees if you still have a contract service agreement with your cellular carrier. These fees can be substantial and are beyond our control. Any contractual obligations with an existing carrier are the sole responsibility of the customer.
  • Before initiating a number transfer, check the number on our Local Number Portability page to verify that it can be transferred to our network.
  • Please be advised that transfers of Wireless numbers to BroadVoice will require additional information that is requested by your current Wireless Carrier.

See the FCC's official Wireless Local Number Portability (WLNP) information for more on wireless number portability.
