Written by UnitedCloud | Apr 2, 2024 1:00:00 PM

When changing your business's phone service provider, there is nothing more important than a smooth transition, especially when it involves porting your valuable phone numbers. At UnitedCloud, we understand the significance of uninterrupted communication with your customers and the potential impact that technical hiccups can have on your business. That's why we are here to ensure a seamless process for you.

Understanding Number Porting

So, what exactly is number porting? Number porting transfers a phone number from one service provider to another, allowing customers to keep their existing phone numbers when switching companies. This valuable service ensures continuity and prevents any disruption in communication with your clients.

Suppose you need to switch service providers but want to keep your existing phone number. In that case, number porting makes it easy to transfer your mobile numbers, business landlines, international phone numbers, freephone numbers, and inbound services in just a few simple steps. 

 

The Number Porting Process

We've streamlined the number porting process into a few key steps to ensure a smooth transition for your business. Here's how it works:

Step 1. Initiate the Transfer

Begin by informing your new service provider, in this case, UnitedCloud, that you wish to transfer your service. Our team will guide you through the necessary steps to get started.

Step 2. Verify Ownership

You must provide proof of account ownership and the phone numbers you wish to port. This step is crucial for protecting your interests and ensuring the security of your numbers.

Step 3. Invoice Validation

Have your most recent invoice from your current provider ready. This document is essential as it verifies your Ownership and provides necessary details like the account number and service address.

Step 4. Letter of Agency (LOA)

Signing an LOA is a key step. It authorizes UnitedCloud to request the transfer of your numbers on your behalf, ensuring the process is carried out with your full consent.

Step 5. Coordination Between Providers

With all the necessary information and documents, UnitedCloud will work with your current provider to begin the transfer. We aim to update routing information seamlessly, minimizing service disruptions during the transition.
