Re: No way

What is why you have 3rd party verification for number porting. When I ported my number from telco to cable I had to go through 3rd party verification.

Then why can't cable do the same thing?

Because it's not necessary (unless you're talking about number porting to cable in which case they already do, I went through it with TWC and Cox from Verizon and then Pacbell)

You have to with number porting because you can't have 2 providers stuck with the same phone number, there has to be a hand off. It's a technical limitation. You can have FiOS TV and Cable TV at the same time or DSL and Cable HSI at the same time.

Don't go trying to give a logical and thought out explanation.....
