2. Are the phones locked to the current carrier? If yes, you can't use them with the AT&T SIMs until you've paid off the phones and the current carrier unlocks the phones.
consult your carrier if you have plan contract(you can leave anytime but have pay ETP) or device installment(no contract can leave anytime but is financing your phone with them. You may end up paying both ETP and device pay off depending on # of line that you port out. Also check unlock policy, hpham_53 is correct on part2
There are many scenarios. Carriers makes things more complicated than before by offering 1 or 2 yr contract in exchange for subsidized phone price, financing on installment(eg the ATT Next program), and leasing to buy/return after certain periods. Not to mention the monthly credit on devices(what they call the Free Phone or BOGO or 50%), Reading your post it seems like you are simply financing a phone with current carrier and don't have a contract with them.
I tried to contact AT&T Port Dept this morning at 8:30AM CDT, but their automated phone system said no agent available and cut off the call. Tried to Chat, but when I entered "Port" as the topic, it said I needed to sign in as an AT&T customer to get help with that.
So I used the Port Status web site to update the acct#s and PINs for my 3 failed port numbers. Had to do it in steps, entered the corrected acct# first, then a few minutes later re-checked and entered the PIN. At least their system seems to submit the new info immediately. The port status show the numbers will be ported in by 1pm today.
Checked the order status and it showed "In Progress" for all 4 SIMs (only one was in progress yesterday). Then got an email showing the SIMs with the phone numbers assigned to them, and a statement that an email will be sent when they're on their way.
