Porting your number to Simply Bits
Yes, you can bring your number with you! In most cases, we can port your existing landline number to Simply Bits. There are a few things to keep in mind, and we’ll walk you through what to expect.
Can I port my number?
In most cases, yes–if it’s a landline number you own.
Some types of numbers can’t be ported, including:
- Cell phone numbers
- Toll-free numbers
- Numbers from non-standard or unsupported carriers
We can’t guarantee every number is eligible, but we’re happy to check for you.
How long does it take?
It depends on a few factors–especially the type of number and how cooperative your current carrier is.
- Mobile numbers usually port within 24 hours
- Landline numbers generally port within 7 days
- In rare cases, it may take up to 30 days
Tips for a smooth porting process
- Keep your current service active and paid until the port is complete
- Do not cancel your existing service before your number is fully ported
- Plan ahead– especially if your current service is ending soon. Porting can take up to a month, so don’t leave it to the last minute
