Porting is the process of moving your VP number and contacts list from your current VRS provider to another VRS provider. With the availability of VRS provider options to choose from, deaf consumers like you and I can take the advantage of porting.

The big question

"Will I lose my VP number and all of my contacts if I port to Convo?" 

No! You can port to us and keep your phone number and contact list. Currently, the best solution is to take screenshots of your contact list, and we'll take care of the rest! We'll make the transition as easy as possible for you.
