hi. yes you can switch to straight talk and still keep your existing phone number. when you activate your phone online it will ask you if you want to switch your phone number. The question comes from a computer talking just to let you know. if you have problems getting the number to switch then talk to a representative and they will help you change your number in about 2 or 3 minute after they pick up. i would suggest talking to a representative.

Yes, You can transfer your number from your current carrier to Straight talk with an unlocked phone. I just used a company from Amazon to get the unlock key and I was good to go. Very easy process

Yes. I bought the one that had the Verizon simcard already in it, but I am sure you can change it out to whatever you want. It comes with a small tool to change out simcards.

I have been a VM customer for a few years. We have switched over 3 phones from other service plans. No, there is no activation fees with Virgin Mobile...Yes, you can keep your phone number...my advice is to activate over the phone with a VM rep and they can help you switch over your previous #. (They have to request the # be "let go" from the other company...never seems to be a problem....and usually the process takes a lot less time than they will tell you.) The VM website has a map of coverage...check it first. They seem to have much better coverage on the East coast. Good luck!

Hello Kathy,In most cases, you can keep your existing phone number by porting it. To port your number, your account with the other carrier must be active and cannot be under contract. Please contact us at 1(800)733-6632. We can verify the portability of your number and provide you with additional details on the process.

You sure can, honey. It won't matter if you get a new phone. The number stays the same unless you contact the phone company to change it.

That would depend on the service you use, however, as far as I know you should be able to with all phone companies. You must not cancel your old or existing service before the number is transferred to your new service or new phone. If you do cancel the old service before the number is transferred, you will have already lost that number. So, if it's done correctly, then the answer is YES!

I haven't done that, I did it from Verizon to Tracfone. Anyway, If you are currently with Tracfone, you can update your phone. If you coming back to Tracfone from another carrier, I believe you can come back to Tracfone any time. The phone number is yours and it doesn't belong to any carrier.

Yes. Once you get it - just call Virgin or go online and "change" your phone. You'll still use your old number and plan or you can update your plan at any time.

Yes, you can. It will not extend your contract. You have to call verizon to have the phone connected with your current number. It's very quick.

Yes the choice is yours....though I don't know if it's the same in all states. In NY state you can keep your phone # or get a new one and disconnect the last one - whatever you need.When you call *228 the system is gonna ask you about that - swap phones on the same # or add a new phone line.

I do believe straight talk has improved to allow Verizon customers to use their phones with their service now. I know a few people who have carried over their Verizon phones to straight talk. As long as they take SIM cards. Check their website. And I have a SIM card I will sell for $9.99 I paid for it plus $4.99 s&h.

No, you don't want it to come with a phone number. It is set to factory settings, and you get it activated with Verizon. They will give you the new phone number.

I was able to switch my phone number from an old cell phone to this phone with Verizon. There are instructions on the website to do this.
