Can I purchase a device under the Family Motor Coach Association Mobility as a Benefit program?
The device purchase needs to be unlocked and compatible on the T-Mobile (GSM) network. Click this link (https://www.t-mobile.com/resources/bring-your-own-phone) and enter your device’s IMEI number to verify Compatibility (dial *#06# to get your phone’s IMEI).
Can I bring over an unlocked, compatible phone that I am still making payments on?
Yes! However, when you move your phone to T-Mobile, you will accelerate those charges on the closing/last invoice of your account. We recommend you call your service provider to confirm the remaining payments before signing up for this plan.

Each carrier has a different way to unlock a device. Please contact your current carrier’s customer service to discover how to unlock your specific device.
Can I keep my phone number from another carrier and port it into T-Mobile?

(It is rare, but a phone number may not be eligible to port if T-Mobile does not have coverage in the same area code as your current phone number)In almost all cases, YES! Go to this site to make sure your phone number is eligible to port over to T-Mobile. (It is rare, but a phone number may not be eligible to port if T-Mobile does not have coverage in the same area code as your current phone number)
How do I port my existing phone number into T-Mobile?
First, check your eligibility. Second, contact your current service provider and do the following: Request a Porting Pin / Password (needed to move your number over.) Some accounts may require a Temporary Port Out PIN. Some accounts may require the general account PIN/Passcode. Confirm your device is unlocked and can be ported to another service provider. Request the removal of any blocks or requirements on your accounts so you can port. Ensure all balances are paid to your current service provider. Now you can start the transition to your new account.
What is a porting PIN? How is it different from my account PIN?
A porting PIN is used by some carriers as an extra layer to ensure a device and/or a phone number is intending to leave its network. A porting PIN is ONLY used when a device and/or a phone number is moving to another carrier. A porting PIN is typically 6 or 8 digits and is only valid for a short period of time.
This is different from your account PIN, which used almost exclusively when you interact with the carrier’s customer service department to prove you are who you say you are. Account PIN’s are typically 4 digits long and do not change unless you decide to change it.
Will my old service automatically turn off once I switch to the Family Motor Coach Association T-Mobile program?
Every carrier is different and there are several variables to consider. A good rule is to wait until you have written confirmation that your phone number has been successfully ported to T-Mobile. If you cancel your current service before that happens, we may not be able to access your current phone number for porting.
