coorsleftfield Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I want to port my number to Google voice. I understand this will terminate the Sprint account. Has anyone been successful in getting sprint to re-activate the account with a new number, instead of paying the ETF and starting over with a new plan ? I've read user reports with other carriers where they ported their number, and were able to call customer service and get the account re-instated with a new number.

Do you have a particular reason for doing this? Sprint provides Google Voice integration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coorsleftfield Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Do you have a particular reason for doing this? Sprint provides Google Voice integration. I've tried the GV integration and it doesn't work well. About every 5th call doesn't go through and I have to re-dial. Many others have reported this identical problem. I want my Sprint # actually ported to GV. If that kicks me of Sprint and they won't reactive my account, that is their loss, not mine.

CAREND Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 You could call them up and tell them some story about you're just changing numbers due to work, but you have to port the number out first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
