If something feels off
🔑 My PIN or account number was rejected
These can expire, and small typos happen. Reach out and we'll send fresh details right away.
📍 My billing address or ZIP doesn't match
Try copying the ZIP exactly as we sent it, rather than retyping it.
❓ My carrier says the number is "already in use"
Usually just a brief timing gap between systems. Give it a couple of hours and try again.
⏰ It's taking longer than expected
Once submitted, the timing is in your carrier's hands — a quick check-in with them is the fastest path forward. Still stuck after a few days? Contact us.
You have 30 days from receiving your details to complete the transfer. After that, a modest $2.99/month holding fee applies until it's finished — we'll send a reminder well before the deadline.

Steps and timing may vary slightly by carrier and number. Your carrier is always the best source for the latest details.
