Can I keep my cell phone number?

Yes! Brightroam Connect gives you a North American cell phone number that is mapped to the overseas cell phone number of your Brightroam World or local SIM card. We will provide you with a toll free number that will accept calls from anywhere in the US or Canada.

You can then forward your North American cell phone to the Brightroam Connect number without incurring international long distance charges from your cell phone company. You can also choose to have people call your Brightroam Connect cell phone number, instead of the overseas cell phone number, if you prefer.

You can select the Brightroam Connect option when configuring your rate plan. With Brightroam Connect you pay just $0.69 per minute for incoming calls, in addition to the regular incoming rate (if any). Please note, calls to the Brightroam Connect number answered by voicemail will be charged as incoming calls.

How to use Brightroam Connect

Simply forward your North American cell phone number (and/or home and office number) to the Brightroam Connect access number and your regular incoming calls will automatically ring on your Brightroam SIM card.

For instructions on how to forward your North American number(s), please contact your carrier. Please note that your carrier may bill you for calls forwarded depending upon your rate plan.
