Here is how to get your America’s Favorite Mobile account number and transfer PIN, and what to do with them when you move your number to another carrier.
Account Number
America’s Favorite Mobile does not publish where your account number appears. Call 888-804-1448 and ask for the account number used for a number transfer. Most of its lines are free Lifeline service, and a Lifeline line ports like any other once you have the account number; the phone number itself is not the account number.
Transfer PIN
Ask the same agent for a transfer PIN. America’s Favorite Mobile publishes no self-service path for it. Keep the line active until the new carrier confirms the number has moved; a Lifeline benefit transfers to the new carrier separately through the National Verifier, not with the number.
Which network America’s Favorite Mobile uses
America’s Favorite Mobile describes its service as “operating on one of the nation’s largest 4G LTE cellular networks” and says it has “partnered up with the nation’s most reliable network,” without naming the carrier. We do not guess, so this record is classified as host network not recorded. If you are leaving, dial *#06# for the IMEI and run it through the destination carrier’s compatibility check.
Who runs America’s Favorite Mobile
America’s Favorite Mobile, Inc. is a Lifeline provider that markets free phone service to eligible households, with an affiliated charity arm and a device store under the AFM name. Its site publishes a single phone number, sign-in for existing customers, and the terms and privacy pages; it does not publish support hours or a help center.

How to port your number away from America’s Favorite Mobile
- Keep the line active. Do not cancel or let the line lapse before the port completes.
- Call 888-804-1448 and ask for your account number and transfer PIN. Say that you are porting the number to another carrier.
- Give the new carrier the account number, the transfer PIN, the zip code on the account, and the account holder’s name exactly as America’s Favorite Mobile has it.
- Re-enroll the Lifeline benefit with the new carrier through the National Verifier if you want to keep the discount; the number port does not carry it.
Why an America’s Favorite Mobile port gets rejected
The usual cause is a transfer PIN that was never issued or an account name that differs from the one on file. The Lifeline-specific cause is a line that was deactivated for non-usage before the port was submitted; a deactivated line has no number to release. Call, confirm the line is active and the details match, and resubmit.
