Retain existing phone number

[WENth100]

Hello, I am planning to switch over to Public Mobile with a new offer for a 5G eSIM. However I would like to retain my current phone number. Is there a way to do that? Thanks.

@WENth100 most numbers can be ported into PM but not all.  Check it first here (it is a Koodo site but both Koodo and PM are owned by Telus and use the same network)

Once confirmed the number can be ported, download PM app and start the activation using the app.  Remember to get a friend code to activate and

Yes, you may do that. You must keep your current phone provider's service active and you must submit a port request from your current provider. You must create an account and select a plan and select transfer number. Download Public Mobile App to active your service.
