Questions about RTI
Can I keep my phone number when I leave RTI?
Yes. Federal number portability rules let you take a working number to a new carrier. RTI cannot refuse the transfer or charge you to release the number.
Should I cancel RTI before I port my number out?
No. Cancel first and the number is released, which ends your right to move it. Keep the RTI line active until the new carrier confirms the port completed.
How long does a port out from RTI take?
A simple wireless transfer usually completes within one business day once the new carrier submits the correct RTI account number and transfer PIN.
Does RTI run on its own towers?
No. RTI is a reseller riding on the Verizon network.
