get a business account and port number

[KellyRyan]

Hi,

I have a personal phone number with Public Mobile, and a Business number (that goes to my phone) through another company.  Can I port that number to public mobile, and have it go to the same phone as my personal number?

Thanks,

Kelly

hi @KellyRyan 

VoIP line will take around 3 to 7 days to port.

you can request porting in the number as long as the line does not have a lock for no porting

and remember, you need to use another email address to create a new PM account.  There is not combined account here

That's a good thought.  It's a VOIP line, so I would have to find out who the carrier is.  Thank you!

@KellyRyan 

you'd need a phone that is dual sim capable. Get a new sim to start another account...then port the business number to the new account.

hi @KellyRyan 

yes, you can.  To PM, there is no difference

Assuming your office owns the line, make sure they ask the carrier to allow the line to be ported
