Hello...

I have a skype phone number that I would like to keep but also switch to my main number with AT&T. Is it possible to port my Skype number to AT&T (much like you would do if you switched from one carrier to another....i.e. Verizon to AT&T)?

Thank you,

Matt

    I'm thinking...

    Skype number --> Call Forward --> AT&T number.

    I am not sure that VIOP numbers are required to be "portable."

      I am thinking this above suggestion by Joe Mobley is a much better idea, and for one reason only. Once you port to AT&T, you may end up wanting to go someplace else and leave them behind. I have not had the greatest of service with AT&T in the past (multiple situations) and have always ended up leaving them...a dissatisfied customer when I went.

      Matter of fact, last time I left them I would have liked to port my number with them TO Skype, LOL!

      Porting takes time. When you want to forward a number, you just set it and it's done, takes all of 7 seconds (or less) and nobody but you is required to get the job done.
