Mobile Number Portability In India

From 20th
January onwards you can port to any other service provider without changing your mobile number. We have already told you about this date. you will be following in order to get your number, ported. So, now from today when then Mobile Number Portability is getting enabled I would like to discuss about some of the features and points while using this new facility. We told you the whole procedure which you were supposed to perform on your mobile, but there are certain documents and forms which are supposed to be filled and then deposited to the service provider for getting your number ported. All the essential points and formalities have been mentioned below:

Obtain the Customer Acquisition Form and Porting form
from the service
provider. Make sure that you go through all the points written in that form and especially all the necessary conditions for porting your number.

Submit the form with the required ID proof to the service provider and pay Rs 19/- as the porting charge. They will
give you a new SIM and they will tell you the date and time of the number for the porting procedure. Make sure that you put that SIM in your mobile as per the allotted date and time. TRAI has claimed that the while procedure will be completed in 2 hours and that too during night hours. Once you get your number ported you will not be allowed to port to any other service provider for next 90 days. If you are a postpaid mobile subscriber then make sure that you have paid all your bills and there are no dues left on your number and you will have to show the copy of the last bill paid to the new subscriber for number porting. The number will be ported within that same area and if you are a prepaid user then make sure that you used all your balance because after porting you will be having zero balance.
