Cancel prepaid contract online and take number with me to another provider

4 years ago

I have a prepaid SIM from Tekekom and wish to cancel this contract and take the phone number to a new provider. I wish to do the cancellation online (or by email) instead of having to send a letter by post. Please assist me as I do not want to visit the postoffice for this during the lockdown.

Also, I don't have an active plan in my account. Now if I add money to my account online, will it auto activate a service? I do not want to activate any any service but just maintain 6.90 euros for the fee of number transfer how do I do this?

Thanks!

It looks to me like what you want is not possible.

your wish to do this online - difficult; better call the hotline 2202 (good luck to reach s.b.) and tell them that you want to cancel the contract "Kündigung" however (important to mention!) that you want to port the number to the new communication service provider "Rufnummernmitnahme"

decide whether you either want to recharge your prepaid account, spend some further Euro and keep the number - or not to recharge, to minimize the money you spend however also to give up your phone number

I am a bit concerned... I switch to German in order to more easily clarify with Karsten.

@Karsten L.

Hast Du das so gemacht, dass die Portierungsgebühr gleich dem Prepaid-Konto belastet werden konnte?

Andernfalls habe ich ja Bedenken, ob/dass die Portierung erfolgreich durchgeführt werden kann.

"Normalerweise" kenne ich das aus anderen Threads mittlerweile eher so, dass die Prepaid-SIM auf einen Termin in 14 Tagen gekündigt wird und in dieser Zeit hat der andere Anbieter die Möglichkeit, die Portierung durchzuziehen. Ggf. sollte da dann "Opt-In" bei der Telekom gesetzt werden und der neue Anbieter soll dann eine Portierung "sofort" anfragen.

Auf jeden Fall wird der TE bei Abschaltung morgen und Portierungsanfrage morgen für eine Woche oder mehr unter der Rufnummer nicht mehr erreichbar sein.

@siddharth3141 Keep me up to date.

@muc80337_2 gave us good advice. I'll put your cancellation on 17th of January 2021 - never had problems with that before. So you are safe. Your new provider can get the number already since 17:50 o'clock.
