Can I change my tel number bought with unlock key?

Post by new936 »

I got the Ottawa tel number bought with VOIP unlock key. Now I have moved to GTA. Is it possible to change my Ottawa tel number to GTA tel number without paying any extra charge? I do not mind losing Ottawa tel number.

Yes you can. You mentioned the unlock key so I will assume you are a FPL customer rather than a Home Phone customer so you will want to follow the instructions here https://support.freephoneline.ca/hc/en- ... are-moving

It's pretty much the same if you are a home phone customer as well https://support.fongo.com/hc/en-us/arti ... ne-number-

From my understanding changing your number is free, unless you do it a lot :)

Thanks Jake. But when try to open support ticket get these message!
"OOPS
The page you were looking for doesn't exist
You may have mistyped the address or the page may have moved" strange :shock: :?

You are right, they have obviously got a dead link in their FAQs.

This is the support page anyway https://support.fongo.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
In issue type select Freephoneline and the Number change

You can try this link also, but I do not know where it ends up :)
