To Port In your existing telephone number to your TRACFONE and obtain wireless service provided by TRACFONE Wireless, Inc., you (the Subscriber) must agree to the following Terms and Conditions:

In order to transfer or port in your phone number to TracFone Wireless, Inc. you must have a TracFone wireless phone.
The number you are Porting must be active with your old service provider.
Once you have provided us with your information, the transfer process may take a few hours, or up to 2 business days for wireless phone numbers. It may take longer for landline phone numbers.
If you switch your home telephone number to TRACFONE, your home telephone service will be disconnected.
You must keep your TRACFONE service active by adding airtime within TRACFONE's guidelines for maintaining active service. For further information, please review TracFone Wireless’ Terms and Conditions of Service.
If the ZIP Code associated to the phone number is not the ZIP Code for your local calling area your TracFone will be roaming in your local calling area.
If your TRACFONE service does not remain active, you will lose your wireless TRACFONE Number. [tec_128771_link1] to read about Service Extension Plans, which will help ensure this does not happen.
Until the porting process is completed, should you need to call 911 for emergency assistance, you must give the 911 operator your location as the 911 operator will not be able to reach you until the port process is completed.
