Bluegrass Cellular Porting Instructions
Based out of Kentucky. Cannot port-in numbers outside of their “home area” (areas of Kentucky where they have towers) so you would have to get a new number. They have POSTPAID & prepaid plans, They have a program called Freedom Expanded (Financing) – They require a credit check to see if you have to pay a 30% deposit for their devices and how much interest you will pay on their 24-month installment plan.
To port out: The account number is all that is required to port out. POSTPAID Accounts get online accounts where the account number can be found, prepaid customers do not and would have to call customer service to get their account info. They do not have an insurance claim number or online activation claim system – you have to take your broken phone to their local offices for claims.

Check coverage before you port
Bluegrass Cellular ran on the Verizon network while it operated, so the coverage it gave at your address was Verizon coverage. Check it on Verizon’s own coverage map before you start the transfer.
Your right to keep the number is federal, not a carrier policy. The rule is the FCC’s: Portability: Keeping Your Phone Number When Changing Service Providers.
