LOL, really? My wife usually leaves that kind of thing to me...

Zorodzai

ouch, I bet she gave you the "what's the big deal, why are you overreacting ?" look........................

DevilWAH

Hate bloody phones so any excuse not to use it is good

Technically the number isn't ported over until you receive the new phone and activate it. Unless the carrier you moved to is useless and did it wrong.

Yeah but us married folk have a bedroom SLA, so that's always a bonus

MAC I wish it had happen like that.

Random - my wife wouldn't even attempt anything like that without at least talking to me

One of those marriage things I suppose ....

the_Grinch

LOL Mrock! My understanding though is the wife has the ability to change the terms of that SLA at any point in time

Yeah like veritas said those are responsibilities I usually take care of, that blows.

She would never do this without telling me first. That's amazing that she doesn't think you should know about that sort of thing beforehand.

N2IT

She mentioned that she had no idea they would port it over. I'm thinking wellllllllll you purchased a phone from another provider and provided my phone number. What would you think would happen.

Ugh.

Are there programs out there to transfer contacts from the iphone 4 to the Samsung Galaxy 3?

veritas_libertas

Wait, they ported over the number without asking? I wouldn't be mad at my wife. No, I would be having a strongly worded conversation with the new provider.

If it's one of the top US providers (AT&T, Verizon, etc) you should be able to take your phone into one of their shops, they'll gladly transfer over everything.

+1 That made me laugh!

My wife likes me to handle all that stuff for her.

FYI Sprint blows

Their customer service is awful and that is putting it nicely. I would gladly pay the extra 30 - 40 a month to work with Verizon - AT&T reps.

Mrock4

Yeah I swore off sprint years ago for the same reason...they're absolutely horrible.

It took me a good 2 - 3 months to get my wife to port her number as she was on a very bad pre-paid plan and was trying to convince her that it was better with another company and a better plan.

My wife usually gets the idea and then either says not to worry about it, or tells me that it's going ahead but I have to sort it out.
Annoying but also smart.
