My cell phone service is with cingular and I want to go to another provider but I dont want to have to pay the cancellation service fee. I heard that some wireless accounts are transferable and I have a friend that would like to get with cingular.

You can do what is called a transfer of service. By doing so you will be allowing the person to take over your account and keep your current phone number and they will then fulfill the rest of the contract. The transfer of service is done by calling 1-800-331-0500 (you will NOT be able to do it in a Cingular store) now both the person that is the account holder at this time as well as the person that will take over the account will have to be on the phone at the same time. There will be an $18 charge for the actual transfer of service. If this is not done and you decide to take your phone number to a different provider then there will be an early termination fee of $175 if your are still in contract.
Hope this Helps :)

yes, all you have to do is go into a Cingular Wireless store and do a transfer of liability. It only takes a few minutes and it does not cost anything.

i don't know even though if it fairly is my provider or my telephone, yet i for my section do not likely like Cingular all mutually. I recommend, i might desire to be getting terrible provider because of the fact I even have low cost telephones, yet residing in Northern California, I even have discovered not something too super with Cingular. i think of the advert approximately them having the least dropped calls is CRAP, yet having reported that, I even have under no circumstances had the different provider. stable luck with you solutions

It is transferable but you really should wait until your contract is finished. Why pay the extra when you don't need to.

Leonard Moore and Dave Hopkins asked the same question. You should read their answers side by side.
