Landline Change to T-Mobile
I want to change my Verizon landline to a T-Mobile service. I currently have a T-mobile cell phone service and 5G Internet. Has anyone obtain a landline with T-Mobile and how/what did you do.
I also want to retain my home phone number.
Gracias
Hey there @soaringpilot51
T-Mobile did have a landline product, but we actually stopped that program about 2 ½ years ago. Many people have gone the route of putting their home number on a cell phone that they keep at home. This is actually something that I did for my grandmother a couple of years ago. She keeps that phone at home and only gives it out when the situation calls for it.
I know that you mention that you really want to keep the landline. Is there something particular that you like about having the landline? There may be a feature that T-Mobile offers that can give you the same experience and I would be happy to discuss them in a bit more detail.
Is the "connection" to Ooma a good solution. Does it work and what is the process of getting the interface done and keeping my Verizon landline phone number?
Gracias,

T-Mobile does not do traditional land line service.
T-Mobile now partners with Ooma for VOIP device to connect to T-Mobile Internet Gateway.

You won't be porting your existing number to T-Mobile. It will be ported to Ooma instead.

How do I get an answer FROM T-mobile on this subject??
Gracias.
Tmobile use to have an agreement with Ooma, not sure if they still do.
Thanks...but I want to actually HAVE a landline (not just port my phone number to wireless) and I was wondering if a service other than ATT or Verizon CAN work with the T-Mobile Internet device...ie. Voice over IP etc. Has anyone done this??
¡Gracias!
