Trying to get back a lost phone number
My friend was out of the country and didn’t realize her payments weren’t going through, so her Mint Mobile account was cancelled. She just got back to the country and was told that since the account was terminated they could not get the number back and asked her to sign up for a new account and they may be able to recover it. My friend did that and they said it will take a while to activate so they’ll call us in a half hour or so. We didn’t hear back so we called Mint again and they, this time, advised us to see if we could secure the number through NumberBarn. We tried to search the number on their site and they say it’s not available. However, we’ve tried calling the old number we want to recover and it doesn’t appear to be in use. Any advice on other things to try would be greatly appreciated!!
