Here is how to get your TerraCom Wireless account number and transfer PIN, and what to do with them when you move your number to another carrier.
Account Number
TerraCom Wireless does not publish where your account number appears. To get it, call 855-935-8001, and ask for the account number used for a number transfer. A Lifeline line ports like any other once you have it; the phone number itself is not the account number.
Transfer PIN
Ask the same agent for a transfer PIN. TerraCom Wireless publishes no self-service path for it. Keep the line active until the new carrier confirms the number has moved. The Lifeline benefit transfers to the new carrier separately, through the National Verifier, not with the number.
Which network TerraCom Wireless uses
TerraCom Wireless does not name its network on its site, which describes free Lifeline cell phone service and notes that qualifications vary by state. We do not guess, so this record is classified as host network not recorded until TerraCom Wireless publishes it. If you are leaving, dial *#06# for the IMEI and run it through the destination carrier’s compatibility check.
Who runs TerraCom Wireless
TerraCom Wireless is a Lifeline provider whose eligible-telecommunications-carrier filings appear with state utility commissions across the country. Its site publishes one phone number and the Lifeline qualification rules; it does not publish support hours.

How to port your number away from TerraCom Wireless
- Keep the line active. Lifeline lines are deactivated for non-usage; make a call or send a text before you start so the line is live.
- Call 855-935-8001 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 TerraCom Wireless 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 a TerraCom Wireless 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 deactivated for non-usage before the port was submitted; a deactivated line has no number to release. Confirm the line is active and the details match, then resubmit.
