You port in a GV number as your 5th line.
After you get the new iPhone - go across to a store, and have them swap the sims; you MAY need to wait for the first month to get the bill credits going before swapping.
My question is what happens when we do the swap? I know my daughters Iphone 12 phone# would come over the new Iphone 15 but what about all her apps and stuff she has in the cloud,etc? Basically when doing the sim swap would everything from her current Iphone 12 be moved over the the Iphone 15? We've never done a sim swap before so i'm not sure if it works like getting a new phone for your line where all your "stuff" from your old phone transfers over?
Do they use Verizon towers?
I tried Visible (lower plan) who uses verizon towers before and it was so deprioritized that it was unusable (Their premium plan was good)
I tried to insert a snip of my bill but didn't see that option

2) Then go across to the XM store for the necessary sim swap. They will basically activate another eSIM on the new iPhone 15 with the number from your daughter's phone; that pSIM will get deactivated. They will activate a new pSim on the iPhone 12 (or reuse the old pSIM) with the new number.
You COULD set up the iPhone 15 without Apple ID initially and then add it after the sim swap; but I recommend doing it first, so that you can be sure or get help at the XM store.
The other : If you do decide to buy a phone : Yes - you can move the pSIM to another phone; as long as it supports all bands needed for Verizon (LTE band 13 / VOLTE etc.), should work. You MAY get some nag messages about having switched the phone, but can ignore it. In this situation - you don't ask for the CS to switch your device detail. Note that this works with pSim; to switch eSIM it has to be done by the CS and is tied to the IMEI of the device.

1. The most important thing you need to worry about is to transfer the working number from your daughter Iphone 12 to the new Iphone 15 that you will be getting. Since transferring from physical sim to ESIM is not straight forward. Why worry about all the apps and all that if the phone you're trying to use can't make the calls because the number hasn't been transfer to the new phone.
2. Once the new phone is working. You can use the same apple ID that was used in iphone 12 to your iphone 15. You can do a backup to icloud on iphone 12, then install from iphone 15.
3. I use same the apple ID on 3 iphones that I have.

Hopefully the port over goes smoothly I just assumed XM would ask for a pin# for the transfer. I know porting over from GV can take awhile but how do I know when the port from GV has been sucessfully completed? Is there a way I can check?

Hopefully not asking for a pin# is normal and won't screw up or hold up the porting process.
