Porting in a cell phone #

Yes, we can port in cell numbers. We do need the cell account number and the last 4 of the social on the cell account. Best to include those on the LOA or send in e-mail with the LOA so no delays in contacting you for the info.

Thanks for the update. I thought it was possible, but wasn't sure. Quick question on the last 4 of SSN - is that really necessary if the billing password has been changed on the account?

Also, these numbers could be ported in to the Express (local forwarded #) service, right?

Yes, the last 4 of the SSN is required by the losing carrier for verification - This is standard process in all cases.

And yep, you can port numbers into any of our services except fax.

Any plans to support incoming SMS? i.e., SMS to Voipo number gets forwarded to email or an actual cell?

Thanks...

Yes, I'd love to be able to receive and send SMS's from using my VOIPo number. On the receive side I can see it being routed to the email address where voicemails go. Ideally, replying to that email (if it has the right from address) will send an SMS back. Or, the ability to send from VPanel.

If the cell phone is prepaid (pay as you go) where no SSN# was needed?
what do you need in this case?

thanks
