[BC] Cell Phone Number Questions

There is no charge. Number porting is a federal law, they have to do 
it for free. In the end you just have the ported land line number on 
your cell, the original cell number goes away. The process can take 
anywhere from 24  hrs to 10 days, depending on the provider. You end 
up with just the regular cell bill. You DO have to pay for the POTS 
install to get the number but that is a one time fee plus the partial 
month service charge for POTS service until the number ports over to 
your cell.

If I do that, can I keep both numbers, the ported land line and my
original cell number or can I only keep one? If I have two, what wil
lthe cost of the ported number be?

If I only keep one, does the cell company charge to change your number?
