In careful compliance with eBay's rigid policy that prohibits sales of phone numbers that is titled, "Mailing lists and personal information policy," we hold an opinion letter from our legal counsel indicating that this is not a sale or transfer of a phone number or an account. This is a 30-day lease, where title remains vested in the seller. After the lease period completes, Buyer will have the option to pay a "buyout and porting fee" of $10.00 to port the number to a carrier of Buyer's choice. This buyout falls exclusively outside of the purview of any eBay process or mechanism.
After the 30-day lease period completes, and assuming that Buyer elects to keep the number, it will be ready to port to the carrier of choice, like Google Voice, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, etc. Wireless line? Remote call forward landline? Fax? VoIP line? No problem. You will receive porting instructions to port the number to a carrier of your choice. Currently, the number is with AT&T, but Seller reserves the unilateral right to transfer it to a different carrier of Seller's choosing to accommodate Seller or Buyer at no additional cost to Buyer.
