What's the cost of transferring your phone number?

I'm considering purchasing an iphone, as my treo700p is terrible. I have Verizon and would like to bring my phone number with me, but I just found out it could cost a couple hundred dollars. Has anyone with verizon out there done this?

I switched from Verizon to AT&T 3-4 months prior to the iPhone's release. I had a year remaining on my contract at the time but Verizon released me from my contract without charging me the $175 early contract termination fee due to poor reception issues at my house. Verizon wasn't obligated to do so since no cellular provider is responsible for reception inside the walls of your residence or within any building but since I use my personal cell phone in place of a landline at home and I had been a Verizon subscriber since the summer of 2001, they granted me an exception but doing so is the exception rather then the rule.
If you remain under contract with Verizon and port your Verizon number over to AT&T, this will cancel your contract and Verizon charges a $175 early contract termination fee.
How many months do you have remaining on your contract? If less than 6 months or so, you can get a new phone number with AT&T for an iPhone and keep your Verizon contract and phone number. When your contract with Verizon expires, you can call AT&T to have your Verizon number ported/transferred to your iPhone replacing the new number acquired with AT&T for the iPhone. There is no charge for this and the number porting process by AT&T will cancel your service with Verizon automatically. Verizon will send your final bill after your Verizon number is activated with the iPhone.
Or you must wait until your contract with Verizon expires.

  • What is the cost to use my phone in Malawi?What temporary add-ons are available?

    I am travelling to Malawi this month for 1 month. I will need some form of communication out there. I expect I will probably buy a phone and international SIM whilst I'm there, but before I do so I wanted to explore what I can do with my current plan. I am on an EE Regular 2gb plan. Unlimited minutes and texts within the UK and 2gb data. I have no roaming minutes/texts as part of my plan. So my questions are: What add-ons are available so that I can use my phone in Malawi (Africa)? - I have had a brief look on the website, but these seem to only go up to 120 minutes, which is not a great deal and I would need more. Also I don't currently have my phone insured. If I was to get it insured through EE would it cover me against theft - whilst in Africa or anywhere else for that matter? I could buy an international SIM now, but assume my iPhone is locked to EE? Thanks for any help!

    Text RO MALAWI to 150 to see the rates & add-ons.
    Your phone will be locked to EE.

  • What is the Cost of replacing my iPhone screen

    What is the Cost of replacing the front screen ón my iphone4s?

    Apple doesn't replace screens, they just give you a new phone. Schedule a Genius Bar appointment at your local Apple Store and have a Genius look at it for you.

  • What is the cost and process for factory refurbish of a tx2-1375dx with a blown system board?cc=us

    What is the cost and process for factory refurbish of a tx2-1375dx with a blown system board?
    How would one go about arranging for such service?
    Why is it impossible to contact a real human for support, either via online chat or phone? 

    Last I checked I am a real human, it is just that I do not work for HP and can't speak for them. HP would not be the place I would go for a "refurbish" job. They charge an arm and a leg for out of warranty service. You simply need to find someone to replace the system board (motherboard). It is also very likely on that model that you could have your system board repaired. There are many services on ebay that will repair the motherboard at the component level. The cost would be at or under $100 or so. I have more advice to give but many times I write a detailed response only to have the user never come back. I do check my posts so if you want more ideas just please respond. The tx2-1000 was one of the models affected by the nVidia issue that caused so many HP laptops made in the 2007-2009 era to fail prematurely. 

  • What are the replacement charges of I phone 6 plus

    hi, i have I phone 6 plus 16 GB phone still under warranty. accidentally its fell in water now i want to know is Apple is going to replace it?
    If yes than what is the charge ?

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.

  • What is the cost of replacing iphone 5(broken screen, out of warranty) with a higher model maybe 5s? In India.

    Hi,
    Yesterday i dropped my phone and the screen got shattered. The phone is working fine. but the screen is cracked.
    After searching through the internet, i found out the following options:
    Getting Out-of-warranty Replacement.
    Getting the screen repaired by Apple Store.
    I am located in India and had  bought the phone from India only.
    So my questions are?
    What is the cost of getting an out-of warranty replacement for iPhone 5?
    Can i get a replacement for a higher model of iPhone( maybe 5s or upcoming iPhone 6). If yes, how much extra i'll have to pay?
    Is it possible to repair the broken screen in India? if yes, what will be the tentative cost?
    Thanks.

    iPhone 5 screen replacement at an Apple store is ~$120.
    The price of getting the screen replaced in the US on the 5 is $150, and it is only available on the US as of now.
    iPhone 5 screen replacement at an non-official Apple retailer is $75-90
    Should the OP decide to go that route, he will be forfeiting future support from Apple, both in and out of warranty
    A new/refurb 16GB iPhone 5 from Apple is ~$400
    A used 16GB iPhone 5 on Craigslist or Swappa is ~$275-350
    Apple no longer sells the iPhone 5. They keep a number of units on hand for out of warranty service, which is $269 in the US.
    Buying from Craiglist (or on-line) is usually risky as the phones turn out to be not what they are advertised as.

    You used the data.  Verizon can not see what it was sued for.  However your phone can see whats apps used the data.  go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle.  line the dates up with your cycle.  then there will be a bar graph below that   extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.  after those are extended below that will be a list of apps,  there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse
