Can you keep you existing home telephone number?

Yes. It's CALLED PORTING YOUR EXISTING PHONE NUMBER. Ooma helps you do this.

Yes, our provider was comcast, we ported the number to Ooma. This was a good decision. Ooma service is excellent and we effectively eliminated spam telemarketers. Comcast also gave us more competitive pricing for fear of loosing us as customers.

Yes you can , they call it porting. But OOma states: Please note that it takes an average of three to four weeks to complete the porting process. Number porting is supported in most calling areas

Yes, I ported over both of my home phone numbers to the Ooma system. There is a $40 charge to port over, which is waived if you also sign up for Premier Service ($100 year-well worth it).

Yes you can....however Omma I think charges to transport your number....you might want to call or check their FAQ on their website.

In most cases, yes. I live in NJ and had a long existing business/home number. Verizon was able to port it over to Ooma without any problem, but only Ooma customer service can give you a definitive answer. I think that they warn you that there are occasionally SOME numbers that cannot be ported for one reason or another.

You can get a free phone number through Google Voice (yes, you can choose your own area code). You can then set up the OBi100 to call your home phone with the Google Voice number.

If it is locked by verizon, no, you cannot transfer the old number. If it is an unlocked phone, then you can transfer the number.

Yes, you keep the same number, all you have to do is dial *228 when you get it and follow the prompts. Good luck and enjoy! :)

this is a prepaid phone, so when you call it's activated right away with a $10.00 balance and they will issue you a new phone # or you might be able to keep your old #. just follow the prompts when you call.

When you activate your account, you will be assigned a number. After that, if you want, you should be able to transfer an existing number if you wish.

It's a hassle, but theoretically you should be able to transfer your old phone number to your new account. It's easier to do if you call customer service than try to do it online.

You can store numbers from the caller id list to your directory, which means you can change the names of the callers and the phone will announce the name that is tied to that number. I am assuming that you do have caller id through your carrier. For example: the name is Doe Susan - you changed it to Susan and the phone will announce Susan

When you sign up, you tell Ooma your address and they offer a good variety of phone numbers in your area. You can also transfer an existing phone number to their system, though it takes a few days for that process to be completed. Ooma is great for personal home use. Some customers, like myself, were unable to get a fax to work with their system, otherwise it's reliable, has reasonably good voice quality, and is cheaper than anything out there.

Since Im registered with metro online, it was as easy as just updating phone. So to answer your question, you can keep same phone number anf line.

Yes, you always have the option of transferring a number you already have through any carrier or letting them assigning you a new number. I think if you do it online it lets you pick maybe the prefix.

From my experience, no you can't do this. It is only usable from the initial zip code. Once you leave that zip code the number is no good

You would have to contact your service provider...and they will nedd the number under the battery.... But you can usually only do that if you are using the same provider. I dont think you can switch carriers can keep the same number.But I could be wrong. Anycase you would have to contact your service provider....
