How to Cancel Ooma Phone Service (2026 Guide)
Updated February 2026 · Port your number before cancelling
⚠️ Critical: If you cancel Ooma without porting your phone number first, you lose that number permanently. Start the port process with your new provider BEFORE cancelling Ooma.
Step 1: Port Your Number (Do This First)
- Choose your new phone provider
- Initiate a port-out request with the NEW provider
- They'll need: your Ooma account number, name on account, and the phone number
- The port typically takes 3-10 business days
- Keep Ooma active until the port completes — cancelling early kills the port
- Once the number is active on the new service, Ooma automatically releases it
Step 2: Cancel Ooma
- Log in to my.ooma.com
- Go to Account → Account Settings
- Click Cancel Service or Close Account
- Follow the prompts — they'll try to retain you with offers
- Confirm cancellation
If the cancel option isn't visible online, call 1-888-711-6662 to cancel by phone.

💡 Do you actually need a home phone?
Ask yourself: when was the last time someone called your home phone who couldn't reach your cell? For most people, the answer is "never." Unless you need it for business, a home phone is a relic.
