Possible to port in a Koodo number, but somehow keep/port out my PM number?

[jalaram]

My first post to the community.

I have an existing Koodo number that everyone knows and I would like to port it into my PM account.

However, I also like the number that was given to me by PM.  Is there a way to port in and keep the old number?

Thanks,

JC

Great suggestions by @fch

Just keep in mind that fongo charges a $25 porting fee.

You can port over your Koodo number to Fongo /Freephoneline or Voip.ms and keep your current PM number. This way you will have multiple options..

1) Forward your Koodo number to PM number

2) Forward PM number to Koodo

3) Receive calls on both number without forwarding.

4) Combination of other options.

Hey @jalaram,

You need 2 lines for 2 numbers. If you port your Koodo number to PM, then you will have to give up the phone number linked to your PM account.  

If you really really love the new number so much, just make an announcement to everyone in your contacts via sms and hope that everyone updates their contacts sooner or later.
