Deceased account holder

[mmh121324]

My grandmother passed away and the account is in her name. Can we put the account in our name and keep her number?

I know someone who looked into changing the account holder when their spouse died.  At that time, Verizon wanted to charge a fee to process the name change.  I've no idea if that's still true or if you can even do it if you're not a spouse of the account holder.  Again, best to call Verizon and ask them.

You might also consider moving the phone number to VoIP provider.

Good Luck.
