Transfer your number to CREDO Mobile

When you begin the process of transferring your number to CREDO Mobile, it’s important that you have all your account-related information beforehand to ensure a smooth activation. You’ll need:

  • Your current phone number
  • Your billing address
  • The last four digits of your social security number

Please keep in mind that you should not cancel your previous account before you are ready to transfer your number and switch to CREDO Mobile as cancelling service could cause you to lose your number. 

In addition to the list above above, use the chart below to determine what additional information you’ll need in order to transfer your number.
