Swapping PM account phone numbers.

bilal684 — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 10:09:47 GMT

Hello,

My dad and I would like to swap numbers, I would like to have his number and he would like to have mine without me using his PM account and vise versa. Do you think it's possible @CS_Agent?

Has anyone done it? We are both PM customers.

Can't be done; that option has been removed.

The best you can do is keep 1 current account and 1 number, but that involves porting that number away from PM (which closes that account) and back again to the account being saved..

If the plans are fairly identical, just do a SIM card swap, change account credentials and call it a day.

The only way to keep both numbers is to simply swap SIMs as suggested above. Otherwise you will lose one of the numbers.

The number you want to keep is the number you will port out to another providor and then back in again to the other account.

Oh well, that's too bad I guess... 😞
