Although the vast majority of numbers are available for porting, depending on the type of number prefix, it may not be possible to transfer some numbers due to certain agreements between some telecommunications providers. It is always best to check with our support team if the numbers can be ported to our telecommunications providers. All fees for this porting process will be passed on to the customer at the cost we receive from our telecommunications provider. You can port up to 50 phone numbers if they are on 1 phone carrier, which covers most situations. Porting the Uk number is technically made possible by continuation, with the number(s) to be ported being preceded by the rangeholder or host network operator for the rangeholder with a number porting prefix for the winning network operator. If a call is made to the porting number after the porting prefix is applied, the call is then routed directly to the winning operator through the named connection points agreed between the new network operator and the owner of the host network or range as part of the service configuration. When a number is transferred, the responsibility for terminating calls to that number is transferred from CP HOLDING (the exporter) to the winning CP (the importer). There must be a porting agreement between the exporter and the importer and there must be a transit route for number portability between the NO from which the zone is established in the name of the exporter and the NO through which calls to the number carried must be received on behalf of the importer. In order for a port request to be accepted by the NOC (Current Network Operator) / Losing CP (LCP) or RH, all the information contained in the documents transmitted to the LCP/RH must correspond to the documents stored for the telephone number(s) to be worn. It is usually better to contact the current provider when filling in the porting document and ask him what is registered for the postal code and additional information about the numbers to be worn, at this point you can also inform them of your intention to transfer the number away from them so that the port request is not hindered. Therefore, number porting does not change the RH (Range Holder) of a number assigned by Ofcom, as calls are usually always routed through HR hr systems or the host network operator. Andy Morris, Gamma`s Chief Operating Officer, said, “We have simplified the porting process by developing software that guides partners step by step through the process. The software will also take days off from the time it currently takes to switch providers, keeping industry turnaround times to a minimum.
While there is still a long way to go in terms of industry-wide improvements in number porting, we believe our online system adds tremendous value to a traditionally complex industrial process. Porting resellers or wholesale customers from one service provider to another service provider is not supported because number portability is only available to subscribers/end users who wish to switch providers. This applies to all imports into VoiceHost and exports from VoiceHost. More information can be found here: stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/binaries/telecoms/numbering/letter101212.pdf Print your completed form to your company`s stationery, your account holder must sign and date the printed form. You can then scan and return them to us so that we can submit them to the porting service for processing. Since its inception in 1998, Syntec has not been required to export any of its numbers, but will enter into a porting agreement with any UK CP if a number user requests it, as required by law. Syntec doesn`t think it would be economically viable for a company of its size to enter into and maintain porting agreements with the nearly 600 UK communications providers and has therefore decided to work with two of the UK`s largest PCs to provide import facilities. If number users insist on actually importing numbers to Syntec and quality and reliability are the keys, we use a tdm-based port organized by Virgin Media Wholesale. This has proven to be exceptionally robust, but it`s not as competitive a solution as IPExchange, our preferred solution for cost-sensitive imports. *If the owner of the scope of a number from which you wish to port is not included in this list, please call our porting team to find out if a port request for the desired number(s) is likely to continue or not.
Number porting to Infinity is a free service for all Infinity customers, however, depending on the type of number and country, there may be a charge from the carrier for the porting process. The number porting process is always led by GCP (Gaining Communications Provider) and exists exclusively for the end user/subscriber. This means that to export numbers, the subscriber follows the import process with another provider. The LCP only validates data submitted accordingly. The new supplier always requires a Customer Authorization Letter (CLoA), which is verified prior to export. Porting guidelines are industry-wide, so the process is usually similar to a different CP…
