Need to get my home phone number

We switch services from ATT to Comcast because our service increased by $80 but we can not get our phone number ported over. Could someone please help

This is from the FCC about porting numbers: Initiating the processYou may request service from a different company at any time. When changing companies:Do not terminate your service with your existing company before initiating new service with another company.Contact the new company to start the process of porting your number.Provide the new company with your 10-digit phone number and any additional information required, which may include your customer account number and passcode, along with your five-digit zip code.https://www.fcc.gov/guides/portability-keeping-your-phone-number-when-changing-service-providers

Home phone number hacked, what to do?

I don't know if this belongs in this forum but I don't see a forum specifically for home phone service issues. I've used one of the "Bell" incarnations for my local and long distance service for 40 years with the same phone number. For some time I've noticed long distance charges to numbers on our bill that I don't recognize. I've not thought a lot about it, assuming the wife was making those calls. We pay 8 cents per minute and each call only last a minute or two so the dollar amount has not been large. This month I asked the wife about the calls and she told me none of them were hers. Looking more closely some were supposedly made when we weren't home and others while we're not awake. Some were make to Florida and a number to area towns. Very few of the numbers called are familiar to us. We live alone so no one could have made those calls from our home. It seems someone has figured out a way to hack the AT&T system to place long distance calls and get them charged to my account. I'm not interested in receiving credit for past calls BUT I need to find a way to stop future abuse. Yesterday evening I spent over 30 minutes on hold with AT&T customer service and finally got connected to an agent who's primary language is not English. He was polite and was trying to help but I had a real problem trying to understand him. We somehow got disconnected. He did not call back. It was too late to start the process all over again and I really have no desire to spend forever on hold then have to work with someone I can't understand. Hence my post here. I need some guidance. How can I stop the fraudulent calls? How can I stop those that are made from being put on my bill? Will I have to change my number? I've had the same number for 40 years and would hate to give it up unless absolutely necessary. Help?

How are you getting your home phone service? - old school copper wire, Uverse voice, wireless home phone?How are you getting your internet service? - dial up, dsl, Uverse?It almost sounds like old school malware where your computer woud be used to call phone numbers using a modem.Have you done a physical survey of your house and property for any evidence of phone tapping?Look into getting the AT&T wireless home home with unlimited long distance in the states for around $25 a month - more secure and you can port your number over.

Caller id says MY OWN HOME PHONE NUMBER is calling itself!?!?

Today I apparently got a call from myself, or a ghost! The phone rings, I look at the caller id, and it says that it is my HOME PHONE NUMBER calling my home phone (itself)!! I answer, and no one is there. This has happened before, and I just want to make sure no one is hacking my phone number somehow. Anybody know what this means??

Easy... you install the Find My iPhone app > http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-iphone/id376101648?mt=8
You can use that app without iCloud and you don't need a new iPhone.

When a contact gets a new phone number, I delete the old and enter the new. Then when I text or call the old number shows up as a selection yet it's no longer under the contacts info.

When a contact gets a new phone number, I delete the old number and enter the new number. When I try to text or call, both the old a new numbers. One up as a selection choice, even though the old number is gone from the contact.

That's normal behavior as the old one will remain in the memory cache for a while until it's eventually overwritten. If it's particularly bothersome to you, you can restore your phone as NEW and this will empty the cache.

The iPad is not capable of sending an SMS message so texts, pictures, etc., must go through iMessage. The destination device must be registered with the Apple servers by turning on iMessage. Therefore, the user with the iPhone must enable it for iMessage.

The silent/ringer switch and the volume control buttons stopped working, how can I fix this or do I just need to get a new phone?

One day I relalized that the silent/ringer switch on my iPhone 4 stopped working. My phone is permently silent and I can't turn the ringer on. The speakers still work so they aren't the problem. Also, the volume controls on the side don't work either. Is this problem fixable or do I need to get a new phone?

you can try the restore first to make sure it is nothing software related. makesure to back up information and restore as new. after that it is hardware if your with in the limited hardware warranty and can be replaced for free if you are not then it can be replaced for 149$ if it is a iphone 4 or lower

Is there any way to get a actually phone number?

Is there a way to get a real phone number with my area code to generate to my ipod touch. I hope you can help me. Please respond quickly

There are apps to give you a number, but it would not be a "real" number provided by your carrier. It requires Internet to use, due to the fact that the iPod does not have a cellular antenna.

Home phone number of rings?

I have new vtech home phone. I want to extend the numbetr of rings beyond the six allowed within the phone settings. Note that the command <*98XX# where XX is 59 or less> doesn't seem to work on my phone. Help please?

Hello,This is the procedure Step 1 of 3: Pick up the phone and press * 99Step 2: Enter the number of seconds you wish the phone to ring before a call is diverted (between 5 and 60 seconds).Step 3: Press # and hang up. If this procedure does not work on your phone, you will need to ring Telstra customer service on 132200, as possibly this feature has not been activated on your service. Hope this helps
