True or False: Customers who order a smartphone with a new number and then port their existing number later will qualify for the switcher offer.

The statement claims that customers who order a smartphone with a new number and later port their existing number will qualify for the switcher offer. The correct response indicates that this is false because typically, switcher offers are designed to incentivize customers who are transferring their existing phone numbers from another carrier to a new service provider at the time of their new device activation. If a customer starts with a new number, they are not actively switching their number at the initial order, which generally disqualifies them from receiving promotions tied specifically to switching from another carrier.

Additionally, carrier policies often stipulate that for a customer to be eligible for a switcher offer, they must complete the transfer of their existing number at the time the new service is set up. Waiting to port the number later could be seen as not meeting the criteria for the incentive, as the offer is usually contingent upon immediate action during the service activation.
