Ready to sail off into the sunset?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve purchased a phone number from NumberBarn or ported one to us a while ago, you always have the option to port away to a different provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NOTE: Your number can be on any<\/em> NumberBarn plan to port away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, what does it mean to port away?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Porting away means transferring your phone number from one service provider to another. Your number is with NumberBarn. You will port your active number from NumberBarn to Tomato Wireless. The number will eventually no longer be with NumberBarn and you\u2019ll no longer pay us for service. Instead, you\u2019ll pay Tomato Wireless once it ports away. The process to port away takes anywhere from 3-10 business days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do I need to have to port away?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You’ll need your “porting away information” to give to your desired provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The porting away information for your active numbers can be found within your account 24\/7. You can obtain your account details (account number and PIN) for porting your number away from within your NumberBarn account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NOTE: To access the porting away information, your number must be activated and in service. Numbers on order or deleted numbers will not have access to this information. Contact customer support<\/a> should you have questions.
