Cost to transfer number?

I thoroughly scanned the forums and was unable to come up with a successful search. If the thread exists I apologize.

I wanted to know what does the phone company (Verizon in this case) charge you to transfer your number to Vonage?

My parents owned 2 lines, the 1st line is theirs which they are still keeping and I had the second line transferred to Vonage. Anyone know approximately how much it costs to transfer it?

Thanks

It will cost you $9.95 if you don't do it when you first sign up though. I referred someone and he ported over and they charged $10 since he was making a change to his plan. Just a heads up.

Hummm.. Strange I was told thast I could not move my Ph number as I was turning off the service in 2 weeks. So I feel that I got Fucked on that part, all I get told is that I can add the Virtual line.
And I was billed 41.00 Bucks To Act this acct. Hummm, Sounds a bit starnge to me. No matter, there about out of here.
