Hi,

Can we port a USA number onto Public Mobile? If so, any steps/process to follow?

Thanks

I believe you can port your US number to TextNow, which is a VoIP solution.  Not sure if that serve your purpose.

If you want to (cheaply) keep your USA number but sign up for Canadian mobile service, I agree porting to a USA number parking service like numberbarn.com or a VoIP service like TextNow or voip.ms and forwarding to a new Canadian Public Mobile number is the way to go...

You can download the WhatsApp and use your USA number so you can text and calling through wifi.

The only phone numbers which are eligible under Public Mobile services are one's which contain a Canadian area code.

Sorry.

@arakheja Short answer, no. PM is a Canadian company and can only accept Canadian numbers. Your only choice is getting a new Canadian number.

@arakheja   No I don't think that's possible.  You'll need to pick a new PM number at activation.
