Port Out Number But Still Keep Plan?

I am getting another line with a different carrier for my small business. I would like to port my number from public to the new carrier to use as my business line. I would still like to keep my public mobile plan but just get a new number (I want to keep it because I have rewards on this account). Is this possible? When I port out my number from the public will it cancel my current plan?

If you need more data, you can always upgrade your plan, but it’s 1 phone number per SIM, and when you port to your new carrier, you will lose your benefits with PM. You could set up a separate business line with PM so you can deduct it’s expenses for tax purposes while getting double the rewards from auto pay and referrals.

@sidhu326   Unfortunately you won't be able to keep your PM account once you've ported out your number your account is deactivated.  Sorry.

 

Edit:  You could take a new number instead with the other carrier to keep your PM account and number if you want though.
