    There seems to be an influx of toxic trolls lately.  Just report them and hope they will be banned.

    Why cant people just be happy with what they got? No body but a pimp, cheater, or con artist needs 2 numbers.

    Simple fix dude just keep your new number. Why did you get a new phone and number if you had one that worked? 

    Yeah your shady and untrustworthy.. Best of luck 

     

    What kind of crap is this?

     

    I was in the same situation.  I didn’t want to port my number that I had for over 20 years, to an unfamiliar carrier I had no experience with.  Wanted to test coverage, reception, and data use before committing my real number to T-Mobile.

     

    After T-Mobile was proven reliable, I did exactly as @syaoran suggested, and ported my real number over, cancelling the test number.

     

    No cheating, fraud, or whatever was involved.

    From my understanding and to have the least amount of issues.  Port it in as a second line.  Once the port is complete, you can cancel the line you no longer have any use for.
