Remember in the old days when you moved and changed numbers Ma Bell used to forward calls to your new number or at least put a message saying "this number has changed, the new number is..." as far as I know cell companies do not do that.
Now you have to pay a fee every month for the privilege of being able to "port" your number when you change phone providers.
