Can anyone tell me exactly what I need to do to transfer one of my lines over to a friend of mine to take over?

Hi, I am thinking about taking over someone's contract. When I call fido will they disclose the type of phone the contract is on? Would they tell me if I ask?
In addition to the questions above, I'd also like to ask if my friend will be able to assume my number, or will he get his own? Can I still keep my number?
if my friend is in a different province could I still do the transfer this way?
Thanks for your help.
Hello strongguy,
the short answer is: Yes. a Transfer of Responsibility is easy, fast, and a great way to avoid a Early Cancellation Fee should you ever need to exit a contract for any reason since the person you find to assume the terms of service for an agreement or just month-to month pays for the next month's service as you would have.
Their place of residence wouldn't disqualify them. If they are in a different Local Calling Area, they can request a free phone number change at fido.ca or at a local Fido store.
