HI @Insignia 

1. you cannot swap numbers between two PM accounts

2. if your number is from another carrier and active, doesn't matter which province, you can port into your account, just use the link to check eligibility first.   

3. with any number change, it won't affect rewards

In order to have two phone numbers you would need to make a new account. You can change your number by signing onto My Account, clicking that drop-drown arrow and clicking Profile. Scroll down and click Current Phone Number. Enter your province and city and choose from the list.

@Insignia changing number won't affect rewards

BUT, you cannot swap numbers between two PM accounts.  In fact, you cannot even move another PM number into your current account.

You can choose new number, and give up current, by going into My Account's profile page. Or you can port in number from another provider (your current number will be returned.  And once ported , the account on the other provider will be closed)

@Insignia  Yes absolutely you can do it up to 4x every 30 days for free . But do this in your account profile page like this and you will still keep your rewards no worries . Noticed transfer number under first red circle in my screen shot to port number in 

Change # on profile tabs
