    I need a new phone but I want to keep the same number since I have minutes on my phone I pay for

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      We can help you with that, Renita! In order to transfer your current phone number to Consumer Cellular, you’ll want to make sure your previous account is still active. Then we’ll need some account information to start the transfer, so if you have a previous bill or invoice on hand, that will be quite helpful. To get started, you can call us at 888-345-5509 or select a plan and device on our website. Thank you for posting today, and we’re so glad to hear that you’re considering our service!

  7. Rick says

    Is there a way to manual add contacts to the as I could not get the sim card transfer to work?

    • Ashley at Consumer Cellular says

      Thanks for posting, Rick! You can try transferring your contacts via Bluetooth instead. I was able to review your account, and I see that you recently switched from a Doro 626 to the Alcatel Kora. First, go ahead and enable Bluetooth on both devices. Next, you’ll need to take the following steps on the Doro. Start by going to your Menu, then select Phonebook. Scroll to the contact you want to transfer and select Options, then Send vCard. Choose the option to Send by Bluetooth, and then choose the device you want to send it to. Select Bond, and confirm by selecting Yes. You’ll need to make sure to accept the Bluetooth pairing on the Kora as well. Once the contact is sent, the phone will say “Done”. There should then be a message on the Kora to save the contact. We’re happy to walk you through this over the phone if you like at 888-345-5509. We appreciate you reaching out to us, and we hope you enjoy your new smartphone!

    I bought this phone for my wife, she loves it now that she has used it for 6 months. It was the right price – $60. It has 8 GB storage and an included 16 GB microSD card. I’m going to snag that microSD card if I need more memory. I haven’t actually verified if it does include this microSD card.

    This phone does not seem to be available on the Consumer Cellular website anymore.
