Both sets of numbers are originally from Telus Mobility, so yes, both of these numbers can be ported to Public Mobile.

Hi @Rappa

If you're already a Public Mobile customer, you can logon your account and go to "change number". The system will confirm whether the phone number is eligible for transfer.

Please note there are temporary measures in place regarding number porting as a result of ongoing back-end maintenance.

- The function to port a number to your Public Mobile SIM within Self-serve Account is temporarily unavailable.

- Porting a number during the activation process continues to function.

Number transfer in Self-Serve impacted by ongoing maintenance:

The vast majority of phone numbers are portable to public mobile. The exceptions to this is when a number belongs to a smaller private company often municipal owned telephone companies in smaller towns and they the right to refuse to release a phone number from their much smaller (limited) pool of numbers or certain areas of the country (under populated) like north western ontario that few if any telus exchanges are available so telus/ koodo/pm service cannot be provided in that area unless you choose a new number that can be used in that area.
