I'm paying for my sister's plan and mine both are Tmobile - I'm going to cancel my plan, and keep hers (mine expires sooner than hers and that way I won't incur the $200 fee for early termination). Can I switch my phone number (which is already a tmobile #) over to hers when I cancel my service?

Both plans are in my name. I did it as a favor to her.

When yours expires, meaning no more ETF, why don't you convert hers to a family plan and add yours?

She is moving to Europe, and I won't need more than just one line. However, if I can't move my number over, that might just be the answer.

Unfortunately no this cannot be done...the contracts are dependent on the individual phone number, not the account in general. Sorry but the only way it sounds like this can be done is if she switches her usage to your number if I am understanding you correctly.
