Using a Top-Up Card question

[duvallite]

jp3515,

When I ported my number from Verizon a few months ago, there was no charge. My contract with them had already expired, so no charge of any kind. Also, if you did not have a PIN set up with Verizon, they use the last 4 numbers of your SSN, iirc. I did not have to even tell them that I was leaving for another carrier. When VM ported my Verizon number, that closed my account with Verizon, and I got a final prorated bill from them for the short amount of usage I had from the start of the month (I had switched to VM after my Verizon month had already started). All was good.

Duvallite,
That sounds perfect to me. Activate/port with VM and let that end my contract. I was wondering about the pin number thing but I do use the last four of my ssn with Verizon.Thanks again to you and everyone for all of your help it is much appreciated.

I never contacted ATT, my contract just ended when I ported the numbers over. Strangely enough I actually got a refund check from ATT for $0.97. It is still on my counter in the kitchen - I haven't made it to the bank to cash that windfall yet.
