Change existing T-Mobile number to a new number
I have an existing T-Mobile number which belonged to someone else (they are not using it now). But since it was used by someone else, I receive messages/calls from their contacts. Is there a way ...
The account holder would have to request the number change unless you have authorization on the account the number is tied to. It can be done with a quick call to Customer Care.
From my experience... to change your number T-Mobile charges $15 dollars. But, I have had some issues in the past where T-Mobile changed my number for FREE when i kept receiving crank calls all day and all night from unknown numbers.
and as @syaoran stated... unfortunately you have to be the ORIGINAL ACCOUNT HOLDER in order to make changes, and not just the owner of the phone.
