- 1). Go into a Verizon store when only a few days are left on your Cricket account. It is not always possible to port the number over to Verizon if you let your account expire first.
- 2). Request to port your current Cricket number to your new Verizon account. You must purchase an cell phone and activate the plan now, otherwise there isn't a phone to port the number to.
- 3). Pay your first month of cell phone service (there is no charge to port the phone number). Once the payment has processed, your Cricket phone number is switched over to Verizon.
