I apologize in advance for my general naiveté regarding this subject matter. My situation is as follows:
Personal phone: T-mobile Motorola V300, contract expired
Office phone: brand new Cingular BB 7100g with BES and large voice plan
I would like to terminate my T-mobile service since my office phone is free and has a more than adequate plan. I would like to port my T-Mobile phone number to work on my BB with Cingular. However, Cingular says it cannot assign a ported number to a device that has an existing number; nor can it assign the number to the device even if I deactivate the current Cingular account and start a new one. The only solution offered is to get another BB or other mobile phone and port my T-Mobile number to it.
Is this true? Do I have any other options?
Thank you!
Newbie
