When you receive your sim and go to activate it that is where you can choose to port in an existing number or choose a number.  You will be given options and when activating sim I think you can even do a search for certain numbers.  The SIMs do not come with a phone number assigned to them


It was one of the last steps of the activation of the sim. I got to choose from a list of numbers (unless I wanted to transfer an existing number) and then you can choose to see more options. In the end I was permitted to choose my last four digits so long as they were not already in use. The first six numbers are based on your location though and non-alterable.

When you get the SIM and start into the online activation process, you'll select a number along the way. You pick it. It's not "assigned".
