Can I Use my Pre-paid plan if I port my number?

Post by jrahhali »

I am currently use my cell phone on a pay-as-you-go plan, with monthly top-ups. Is it possible to port my phone number to fongo, so I can talk and text with my same number in WiFi zones, but also use my pre-paid plan when I'm outside a WiFi zone?

No. Once you port over, your SIM card is deactivated, and the service is cancelled. You would have to set up another account with a new SIM card and new phone number if you want cellular service again.
