has anybody fully completed a number port?
i am tired of the baloney from the carriers. its the blame game now. every carrier blaming the other carrier for port issues. LNP is the biggest hoax on dealers ever!
...
US is an all encompassing word. If you take all the propaganda put out be the carriers about how the process would work, and the fact of 2-7 million changes expected along with maybe 80,000 changes and all the carrier systems going down and unable to handle, it makes me wonder. They delayed it for as long as possible so they could lock up all the customers. i am curious, Big Daddy, which carrier you are affiliated with and if you are aware of any fully completed ports?

😳
I have had nothing but whinney people calling me about LNP and I don't fault them! What do you think of nec 525?

Thats why, your with ATTWS. they are like the only company not useing the same 3rd party company that routes all the information from one carrier to the next. I work at the welcome call dept for VZW, and I have talked to many people who have successfully ported from other companies.. the only ones seeming to have trouble are ones porting from ATTWS..
Another thing to that is causeing unsuccessful ports is not giving the New service provide the EXACT account information from the OLD service provider. Like Misspelling the address, SS#, using the full words Street or Drive, instead on the Abreviation St, or Dr. If the information the NEW service provide asks for isnt EXACT then it will get hung up in the systems.

I did one the very first day it took almost 48 hours to complete a port from Sprint to ATTWS.
...
And if you read my post I said YES! I have seen many successful ports go through. And if I remember correctly within a couple hours of coming into work on Nov 24th we were sent an email saying that we had sucessfully ported in over 900 customers.
...
LNP is as bunch of baloney, all carriers blaming the other carriers for the holdup. yeah maybe you completed a port in but that customer very likely is stillnot recieving calls to thier new phone, only having outgoing from new phone. all you guys are sitting in an office somewhere not on the front lines with the customers. stop believing all the propaganda put out by the carriers and experience what is really going on!!
...
Sounds like someone is a little bitter. LNP is very new and is the biggest technical challenge any carrier has faced. Like anything else it will take time for it to smooth out. For anyone who is having trouble be patient and persistent your number will be ported.
...
You know, you need to lighten up.. did mommy not give you your bottle this morning.. Like any new thing it is going to have bugs it that are going to take some time working out. It's an industry wide problem right now.. I have seen many successfull port coming in, that only had mixed service for a few hours.. A lot of the problems are coming from AT&T, Cingular, and Nextel.. Everyone else seem to be porting in or out from everyone else just fine. AT&T's problem is they are using a seperate NPAC that everyone else. Verizon is offering customers who are having a delay problem a $25 service credit to thier new Verizon account, which should MORE than cover a couple days of charges being on two carriers.
...
You seem to know an awful lot about LNP? The issue being experienced are really the fault of the FCC for setting unrealistic expectations for the early going. They had people thinking this would be the no problem and it would move like clock work.
...
LNP is not new!! The carriers have had over 6 years to get the **** up and running, but everyone was delaying it. Even Verizon.. But when Verizon realized it was inevitable, they jumped on the bandwagon and got this stuff working before anyone else. Verizon even built a whole call center DEDICATED to LNP in Murfreesboro, TN which is like 30 minutes from me. This stuff is in no way the FCC fault. they have given the carrier MORE than enough time to complete this crap. Right now the main company slowing LNP down is AT&T who insist on using a different company to transfer the information from one carrier to another.
...
I do realize that the carriers have had the time. But why did the FCC give consumers and unrealistic time frame when it first started.
It may not be new to the telecommunications industry as a whole but it is new to the cellular industry. If you were a business would you want to loose leverage like keeping a number?

If I was running a GOOD company and knew how to keep my customers happy, I wouldnt have to worry..
...
Every company is having problems, SOME companies that have crappy 15 day buyer's remorse period are purposely delaying port in's just so customer's can't cancel. The biggest problem is that LNP is new, using technology that has had very limited testing, if people would calm down and wait a month or so it'll eventually smooth out, but already it's getting better.
