Number Porting

[wychao]

Hello,
I just wanted be sure I can do this before I make a purchase. I have a number saved in NumberBarn, a wireline number. I want to purchase a plan from Public and port that number in. Will I be able to do so? And what will the process be for doing it? Thanks!

Check the number here first.

Yes you can port out of NumberBarn. It will take longer though. iirc they use Iristel and it looks like a landline to this activation process. You just need all of the name address as registered at Numberbarn

@wychao    Yes you can port in your number from Number Barn.  You need to first purchase a PM SIM card from PM (could take a long time for delivery) or try Amazon or canadiancellsupplies.com for faster option. 

Once you receive the SIM you can start the process using the activation link here:  https://activate.publicmobile.ca/
