Re: 4 days way too long. 24 short ?

My latest POTS port to VoIP took 2 weeks....

I just put in a request about 30 minutes ago to port a Vonage number to our VOIP through XO. I was told bad scenario is 30 days, but usually 2 weeks. I do think it is a problem, but considering security, there are some checks and balances that must be implemented to insure that the right number is ported and there is proper authorization. Of course the FCC plays their part.

Wait until you try to port a number AWAY from XO....Took us weeks and they still intercepted calls from other XO customers and routed them to our old inaccessable mailbox for another month! Don't forget the 30 days advance notice also.

(i thought Vonage used XO actually)

Thanks for the encouragement.

Hopefully if Vonage uses XO it will be a quick port over.

I know the problem about XO routing internal numbers. I had to configure our phone system to use a backup AT&T POTS line for another sites 1-800 #. Otherwise it kept on going to a fax.
