I used it a few yaers ago when I moved from a condo to a house. For a week or so, I was moving between both places and wanted the same number. Michigan Bell was glad to do it, with no additional charges (other than the prorated monthly rate at each location). A very useful service! [Moderator's Note: Several years ago, when I moved to my present apartment, Illinois Bell offered the same thing. Since I was in the same district, thus keeping the same number, they said have it both places for a week or two during your transition. It was a great help during moving week. PT]
