Best Answer

Yes

Just wanted to let people know my story. I purchased an LG Optimus F3 from Target in January 2014. It was $150 and for $20 more I got the replacement plan from Target that will give me a Target gift card with my purchase price on it if any thing malfunctions with the phone in the next two years (but not due to human error).

Anyway, my family and I were all going on a family plan with T-Mobile and the account owner just called customer service gave them the SIM card info for my new phone and my Sprint phone number was ported over in about 4 days.

We did the same within minutes with my mom's LG F3 phone by going into the T-Mobile store and having them port over the number. I believe there is a $10 SIM card charge.

I wanted to share this because the LG Optimus F3 is $240.00 if purchased from T-Mobile directly and they don't exactly tell you that some how they are entilted to a 62% mark up on the market value of a phone if you are post-paid rather than prepaid.
