said by herberthm1 :obviously you don't know what you are talking about, there is labor involve some one actually needs to seat behind a computer and do it, that is labor and that person needs to get paid, Yeah, it probably costs them 47 cents.
And it probably costs them more to bill for the $40 than it does to actually port the number.

obviously you don't know what you are talking about, there is labor involve some one actually needs to seat behind a computer and do it, that is labor and that person needs to get paid, but regarless $40 seem kind of high but as long as they tell customer about these charges I don't see the problem no one is force to swicht and if you are willing to pay the fee swicht if not then don't |

Well then verizon isnt any better since they charge even more fees for things then cablevision does. Plus they refuse to deal with the town of babylon on fios tv .
Cablevision is the less of two evils. |

Porting a number does not cost anything. There is really no labor involved, it is just a ploy to prevent you from leaving.

I ported in...
and bitched and bitched about that 40 dollar charge....
they wouldn't budge...but in the end it saved money anyway.
I'm just about to port my business line in, I might cite this report and bitch some about it and maybe they'll move this time... |

In my opinion, Cablevision is run by a bunch of scumbags. Don't trust a single thing they say. |
