How to migrate your iPhone and Apple Watch to Xfinity Mobile from Verizon after getting Xfinity – Medium

Now that I had already installed gigabit pro and generated the first bill, it was time to finally migrate from Verizon to Xfinity Mobile because:

The key thing to remember here is that I waited for the Xfinity Gigabit Pro to be fully installed before starting the process.

What I liked:

This finishes the initial part which was straightforward. Now comes the porting part which is not easy. I had to chat with Verizon to get that part going. Here is how it went:

One PIN is good enough for all lines

The PIN can be generated from either phone if it expires

It is ok if one number is ported first and I generate the PIN again after a few weeks to port over the next number from the next phone

Remember that if you leave Xfinity Internet, they will add a $20 to your monthly bill. I wont because I have Xfinity Gigabit Pro

Even removing the two Apple watches from the plan, my Verizon bill is:

~ $85 per month for 5 gb on Verizon

With Xfinity Mobile I will be paying ~ $15 per month for 1 gb internet (even that we dont use now at home). With $250 paid over 24 months for a 128gb iPhone 12, the bill comes to:

~ $42 per month with 1 new phone for 1 gb on Xfinity Mobile

We use around 8 gb per month (that is the max we have ever used no matter how much we have tried to use because we are not crazy enough to stream audio or video on cellular) when we go back to work, so that would be $60 per month (shared). So total with the phone at that time would be $60 + $24 = $84

~ $84 per month with 1 new phone for 10 gb on Xfinity Mobile

If one more person joins the plan later, with a new phone, we would still use under 10 gb (I know how much we use), so it would still be:

~ $108 per month, with 2 new phones for 10 gb on Xfinity Mobile

Only one of us use cellular data a lot, if that person moves to unlimited at $45 per month for that line and the other person uses 3 gb per month at $30 per month, that would be $45 + $30 + $24 = $99 per month

~ $99 per month with 1 new phone for 3 gb per month on one line, unlimited on other line on Xfinity Mobile
