Do I need to swap my sim if I want to keep my number from iPhone 5s to iPhone 6? Is there a way not to swap and just have my number transferred to the new sim in iPhone 6?
Got a tip for us?

But what if i don't want to swap, isn't there a way to transfer my number instead to the new sim?
That's what the Tmobile rep in the store did when i got my iP6 this morning. I actually just wanted to swap my sim out of my iP5, but he insisted it only take a few mins to transfer, and it did. He did it right there on the spot in maybe 2 mins total.
I just figured out how to do mine on T-Mobile. I went in to My Account, chose Phone from the top, hit Change Sim, I typed in the tiny number that from my SIM that came with my iPhone 6 and hit submit. Then I went back and updated which phone I had on the Phone settings page on their site so it showed my proper model. All done.
Is yours postpaid plan? Because I have prepaid and I don't have that option on the website. So i guess i'll probaly just call customer service and see if they can do it over the phone.
