I noticed my local Walmart is selling home phone service cards now, but they don't seem to be offered on walmart.com.

not available in all areas.it is cdma type of service and will not work with gsm network.

What are you worried about OP, you have no expiration! They probably goofed and gave you lifetime service.

Yeah, I thought about just leaving it alone and see if that was the case, but I really didn't want to risk losing the number.

Can you port a cell phone number to the home phone device or does it need to be a land line?

As far as I know, you can port any number to this device. A cell number should port more quickly.

i had to pop in my local walmart to pickup something and looked, they sell the service cards but they are with the regular phones. which makes sense. i had looked before in the st cell phone section.

Ever since I moved from a GSM (AT&T) phone to a CDMA phone for my mom--it never lists the minutes or service end date. Luckily, they E-Mail before it expires, otherwise we'd have no idea. If Straight Talk would get more 3G AT&T phones I'd move her back.

I just wish they would sell them on walmart.com.

I noticed that they do not sell them on WalMart.com. I wonder why that is.

Glad to hear that the ST home fone works OK. I will probably try it when i get back next Spring. Have an interesting case; I gave my stepdaughter a $15 sim that was active. Told her to make sure she gets the $45 topupcard at Walmart (3 different times). She bought the $30 one instead which of course won't work with a smart phone. Called CS several times and asked them if i could just give them the pin and a credit card for the other $15 to add time to the sim chip and they all said NO..Pete Walls

I couldn't resist this one since vzw is so good where I live. I have had an old phone that I really didn't use but I kept it alive(on page plus) until I could port it to a VoIP or home line. (It is a really cool number). For some reason there is no local VoIP number where I live. Not ooma, mj, or nettalk, republic . None could port in a columbia mo local #My Internet can be iffy sometimes as well. So VoIP isn't a great option anyway. It took only 20 minutes to port to their home phone service. I did everything online. There are 2 outlets on the box. One for a phone that doesn't. Require power and the other jack for your cordless phone base station. So far so good. Makes and receives calls caller Id works on my cordless system. I have had this number for 2 years waiting for something better to come up. And it's portable for when I go between my homes. I don't use a lot of home minutes but I might now that I have it. For 15ish a month it is better than the 50 dollar a month monopoly that is here.
I wanted a local number because my friends with a landline that don't have a cell pay about 25 cents a minute for an instate call. The number is kind of like. Xox-6666. So it is very easy to remember.

I was able to set call forwarding to my google voice number for voice mail transcription.
