Porting from Telus Landline and multiple numbers on single phone

[Niall99]

Is there any way to confirm a Telus landline number can be ported to PM ? I tried with another provider and discovered after SIM and airtime purchases that they couldn't do it (despite promising they could initially)

Can a single phone/account have two numbers associated with it ? Searching the forums and couldn't find a clear answer (not using a dual SIM phone).

Thx ...

Yes you can port your landline number over to PM.

Here are the detail instructions (refer to #2 that it may take 3 days to complete the porting) on PM website:

Unfortunately you can’t have 2 lines on 1 account. You will need a second email address for the second line…1 email/1 account.

Since you don’t have dual SIM. It can be done on new phones with 1 SIM & 1 eSIM. For older phones without eSIM compatibility or non-dual SIM. You will need a second phone with a second SIM. Activation of SIM can only be done on the PM app on each phone.
