Hey guys I am currently with Virgin Mobile Pre-Paid but would like to switch to SO. Is there anyway I can transfer the number I currently have with Virgin and switch it to the SO?

Check out the FAQ on the Speakout Site - here is link and extract - http://speakout7eleven.ca/pages/faq/

"Can I port my existing Pre-Paid or Post Paid wireless number to SpeakOut Wireless?

Yes. But before considering a switch, you should ensure that your phone number is still active with your existing service provider. Please also note that any unused airtime minutes cannot be carried over to SpeakOut Wireless.

What do I need to do to have my phone number ported in to SpeakOut wireless?

Visit your nearest SpeakOut Wireless Retailer to purchase a new SpeakOut Wireless Handset. Then call the SpeakOut Wireless Customer Service line at 1-866-310-1023 and we will start the process of transferring your number.

SpeakOut Wireless will notify your previous service provider if you wish to move your number from their service to SpeakOut Wireless. Please note that you are still responsible for any cancellation fees and residual charges that may be owing under your previous service provider's agreement."

Good Luck ๐Ÿ™‚

does the current number have to be on a "Pre-Paid or Post Paid" account as they have said in that faq to switch numbers?

because the number i would like to switch is currently on a monthly plan with bell.

does the "post paid" qualify as a plan?

thx

Yes, post-paid would qualify as a plan, or saying you are under contract. Make sure your contract has expired with your current provider, or you could get hit with hefty contract cancellation fees.
