Porting Requirements (To Be Considered Before Porting Out Your T-Mobile Phone Number)
Before initiating the porting process, there are a few things you need to consider. Some of the important things to consider are explained in detail below:
1. The Number Must Be Portable
The most fundamental requirement for porting is that the number must be portable. Although most of the T-Mobile phone numbers can be ported to KrispCall, it’s always safe to make sure of that.
Checking the eligibility for porting is quite easy with KrispCall. You can go to KrispCall’s Number Porting Eligibility Checker tool to conveniently test and find that out.
2. The Number Must be Active
You can only port your phone numbers if it’s active and in use. So, make sure that the number is active before applying for porting.
If your number is currently inactive but you are still looking to port out your T-Mobile number, you can request T-Mobile to activate your number and then proceed with porting.

3. Device Should Be Unlocked
A device locked into T-Mobile’s network cannot be ported. So, make sure that your number is unlocked at all costs.
If your device is locked in T-Mobile’s network, check T-Mobile’s SIM unlock policy to see if it’s eligible for unlocking.
4. Clear Outstanding Payments
Also, you can’t proceed with porting your T-Mobile phone number to KrispCall if you have outstanding bills with T-Mobile.
Thus, make sure you have cleared all the due bills, whether they are fees associated with your current phone service, unpaid balance, usage charges, equipment fees, taxes, or anything else.

Information and Document Requirements (To be submitted to KrispCall)
The following is the information and documents you need to provide for porting your T-mobile phone number to KrispCall:
1. Phone Numbers

Plus, make sure that the phone number is in E164 format (E164 numbers start with [+] [country code] [subscriber number including area code] and are up to fifteen digits long.).
2. Letter of Authorization (LOA)
The next thing you need to submit is the signed Letter of Authorization issued not more than 30 days ago. The LOA verifies your ownership of the number and provides everything porting representatives need to successfully transfer a number.
