NET10 Wireless Account Number, PIN & Port Out

Net10 account # is NOT the Phone Number. It is the MEID or IMEI serial number of the phone (this can be found on the back of the phone itself - under the battery, so remove the battery!) Or, if your are using a BYOP SIM Card, it will be the last 15-digits of your Net10 SIM Card ICCID number. This makes porting away from Net10 difficult for customers who have lost their phone or had it stolen before trying to port out. NET10 doesn't use passcodes, use 0000 if the operator you are porting to requires a passcode.

NET10 Wireless Porting Instructions

Your NET10 account number is the MEID or IMEI serial number of your device, which can be found on the back of the phone itself. If your device has a removable battery, the IMEI will be on a sticker under the battery. If your device does not have a removable battery, you can find the ESN printed in very small digits on the back of your device. The ‘About’ section within the settings of your phone also should contain your IMEI. Unfortunately this makes porting away from NET10 difficult for customers who have lost their phone or had it stolen before trying to port out.

Your NET10 account # is NOT the Phone Number. However, if you are using a BYOP SIM Card, your account number will be the last 15-digits of your NET10 SIM Card ICCID number. NET10 does not use passcodes, so enter 0000 if the operator you are porting into requires a passcode.

Check coverage before you port

NET10 Wireless runs on the Verizon network, so the coverage you get at your address is 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.

Working a counter? The NET10 Wireless transfer PIN lookup puts these steps on one screen and texts them to the customer.
