Sick of waiting, Ordered Tmobile

Hello All,

Been Lurking for a while, great forum.
I have been interested in getting this phone for while, and I certainly don't have the patience(as some of you have 🙂 )
My 2 year contract with att just expired a couple of days ago. I was on an unlimited 24/7 plan $99.00 month . I liked the plan, but no roaming included ☚ī¸ That is a big drawback.
I just purchased the A630 from amazon, with the $45.99 mnth 1,000 minute plan( now I have to count minutes ☚ī¸, t-zones, and text messaging.
I'm in NYC, i've heard that tmobile service is comparable to att/cingular?
One thing that bothers me is having to get a new number, but what's the big deal, not to hard to let ppl know your new number. One thing I wanted that tmobile doesn't have...

I'm waiting for Cingular because T-Mobile has crappy reception were I live. I could get t-mobile, it will work all over my town except my neighbor hood...whats the point if I can't get calls at home as well as out on the road. Any day now Cingular will be getting the phone. I can't wait!

like Xandlyn I'm waiting. I'm surprised t-mobile would not let you keep your old number. By Federal law carriers are required to let customers keep their old number if they wich to do so. Also, I hope you don't travel cuz t-mobile coverage sucks. I waited 6 months for my mini ipod and I certainly can hang in there a little whill longer for the a630. (Actually it can be anytime now) 😕

I think it has to do with amazon, while ordering the phone there was no option to transfer the old #.
I just hope the service isn't too bad here in the city, I've heard good things bout the service in the city. At least I only have a year contract lol 😁
If the service turns out good, I can atleast be hap...

when you get your phone call tmo cust service and they can port your number over as long as you havent xcled with att yet. amazon has a link on the a630 page that will tell you exactly what you need and how to do it...click on the link that says "keep your number" located about an inch down from the top of the page..right hand side

If you haven't cancelled your AT&T Wireless service yet, DON'T!!! Once you recieve the Motorola a630, contact T-Mobile and tell them you'd like to port your number from AWS. Once the port is complete, then you can cancel your AWS service, but don't do it before or you won't be able to port.

Thanks for the info, i'll try it. I haven't canceled at&t yet.
Only problem is t-mobile through amazon.com has already sent me the new # they want me to use. I don't know if i'll be able to do it. I'll try though, thanks.

Evidently, the wait must not be too long because on the Cingular website (Media Net) when you download ringtones and screensavers, it gives you the a630 as one of the phone choices under Motorola.
