To get your Xfinity Mobile transfer (port-out) PIN, log in to your account online or through the Xfinity App and request a security code via text.
Steps to Get Your Transfer PIN
  • Go to Devices: Navigate to the Devices tab and select the specific phone number or line you want to transfer.
  • Select Transfer Option: Scroll down to find "Transfer your number, cancel this line" and click Learn More.
  • Verify via OTP: Choose the option to send a one-time passcode (OTP) to your active line, then enter and confirm the code.
  • Receive PIN: Xfinity will text your 6-digit security transfer PIN to your phone.

i've been following the exact steps above. 
I have just not been receiving any PIN on my personal line.

I am hence not able to stop using the (terribly bad) services of xfinity to use a much better phone provider.

Please advise on next steps. I do need to get my porting PIN.

Good morning user_yr6qy3. Thank you very much for reaching out! The steps above are accurate. It makes things a bit different if the code is inaccessible going through those steps, we would need for you to stop down locally at one of our Xfinity Stores. Here is the link you can use to find the location closest to you, you can also make an appointment through that same page.

Why is this such a prevalent issue? The Xfi app and online web works everywhere except after submitting text verification code to obtain transfer PIN. I signed up online, and now you're telling me I have to physically visit a store to transfer out?

For anyone else reading this. Submit a complaint on the FCC Consumer Complaint Center -> Select Phone -> Select Number Portability. Under FCC rules, carriers are legally required to make it reasonably easy for you to port your number out and cannot unreasonably withhold or obstruct your Transfer/Port-out PIN.
