Some questions about signing up with T-Mobile

1. My uncle has AT&T and I've been on his family plan for over a year now, but I'm switching to T-Mobile and I want to keep my old number. Does it cost money? How does it work, what will I need to do? (I'm using FlexPay)

2. I lost my phone I was using with AT&T about a month ago, so if I transfer my number over to T-Mobile when the phone is activated will I get all the text messages everybody sent me when my phone was lost since it is still activated the text messages are still being sent to that phone number so if I transfer to T-Mobile will the texts I never got to read be recieved on the T-Mobile phone?

1. My uncle has AT&T and I've been on his family plan for over a year now, but I'm switching to T-Mobile and I want to keep my old number. Does it cost money? How does it work, what will I need to do? (I'm using FlexPay) If you want to keep your number and take it to t-mobile and you were under an ATT contract with that number it will cost you an early termination fee for breaking the contract ahead of time. Unless it was a 1 year contract. If you are willing to pay for it then just sign up with t-mobile and ask them to port over your number from AT&T and thats it.

But that depends sometimes. A whole month is a long time and i dont think messages stay in the system for that long.
