I work in the Cingular porting dept. Any questions welcome.
what i want to do:
i presently have a post-pay account with sprint
i'd like to obtain a quad-band unlocked GSM phone
purchase a pre-paid singular SIM
have my phone number from the sprint post-pay (monthly) account ported over to the pre-paid cingular (toGo) SIM.
is this possible?
the objective is to retain the existing cell number, but move to a GSM service that is pre-paid/pay as you go - and have the flexibility to use other pre-paid sims when i travel overseas - europe, aisa and the carribean.
