If I can do it online, how do I prove that I am the "owner" of the number I am porting from? Do I have to send them a copy of an old bill? It seems like that would take days......
In theory you will be able to port over your old number, it would just ask you for the information for the account. You would need the account number, the social security number, and the password that is on the account if there is one. If you have all of that and the address that is enough for them to initiate the port-in request.
*Just in case* they do not allow you to port in during the ordering process, you can still port in your number after the fact, which I recommend you doing in order to speed up your ordering process and getting your order number that much sooner and increasing your chances of getting ahold of your own Verizon iPhone. You can start this process after activating your phone by simply speaking with customer service. It's very simple.
Hope this helps!
