@dmphill  Should be okay just make sure that the number you are putting is not the primary number on that account otherwise it might create issues. Best to call Bell and verify before initiating the port.

In addition to the primary number, don't use the remaining number in the shared plan as the contact number in the PM number porting form.  This will reduce the risk of porting the wrong number in the shared plan.

It is possible assuming it is an personal account (not corporate account).  Avoid porting main primary phone number.  

You will need the following three pieces of information to port from Bell:

1. Bell Account holder name

2.  Bell Account number

3.  Bell phone number

Hello there @dmphill,

You will find more information about transferring your number to Public Mobile in the link below:

However, you need to check the conditions of the contract you have with them and to check number eligibility for transfer. 

You can also find information about switching providers here:

Hope you find it useful!

Nice day!
