Port-out Process Guide Tool FAQ's
What is a port-out?
A port-out is the process of transferring a phone number from one carrier to another so the customer keeps their existing number when they switch.
What information is needed to port a number out?
Most ports require the account number, a transfer PIN or port-out PIN, the billing ZIP code, and the account holder's name exactly as it appears on the current account.
Why do port-outs get rejected?
The most common reasons are an incorrect account number or transfer PIN, a mismatch in the account holder name, or the account being inactive or past due.
Does the customer's old service stay active during a port?
Yes. The original service stays active until the port completes, so the customer is not left without service during the transfer.
