Keep my plan and get a new number after porting my number to another carrier

[baraque]

Hi,

Currently I'm with Public Mobile.

I will get a company phone and plan. I will port my number to the company plan( probably Telus).

Can I keep my public mobile plan and get a new phone no.?

How to do it?

Do I need a new sim or I can reuse my current sim and just change phone no.?

Thanks

Jeff

Totally agree with you but I do have a separate phone and am "supposed" to have it with me at all times

You have my sympathy.  Although I can keep some nasty hours at the salt mine, generally what happens there stays there.

Sorry to tell you Jeff, this isn't possible anymore.  Once you port out your phone number your account gets closed.  If you change your number before porting you lose your number.
