pasumark 51 Report post Posted January 21, 2011 (@pasumark) See Vodafone's webpage on MNP FAQs - there you will see the option you have asked for. The link is here: http://www.vodafone....y_vodafone.aspx They have a wealth of MNP info, great initiative from Vodafone - always ready to help... Nothing mentioned anywhere that you cannot port if your connection is in company name and CUG. But when I contacted Aircel( To whom I like to port to), they also informed that you cannot port a number registered in a company. So I have to change my connection to an individual name and then I can port. Further one more doubt - If I change my connection to pre-paid, can I port immediately or should I wait for another 90 days to port? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But give full details to them with whom u had talked, and why do u want to port the number......... I also feel they are lying. So I have gone ahead to port my number to Aircel pre-paid. If they put some hurdles, I will sure take action as said by you. The reason for moving out of Airtel is 'No coverage' in my office. It is a long story. Airtel used to have perfect coverage in my office. The cell site was just 50 meters from my office. But due to dispute with the land owner, the cell site became in-active and for the past 1 and half years I have been fighting with Airtel to re-activate the tower or install new one. Just got fed up and so moving out to Aircel which has good coverage in my office. Vodafone too has good coverage in my office. RCDMA has installed a repeater free of cost in my office Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey I thought converting to pre-paid will be treated as new connection and one needs to wait for 90 days to port. Anyway, I will first try directly and if it doesn't succeed I shall follow your method of converting to pre and then porting. Meanwhile here in Virudhunagar also the Aircel guys don't have the forms and are asking me to wait for 2 days. Vodafone is 100% ready Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
csmart 472 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 Important question. Do we have PAY for SIM card Rs25/49 as per given on pack? or sim card will come free? tht depends on co to which you are porting in and also executive entertaining you.. in most cases, they waive SIM card charge....

digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 Off topic but in Rimweb home page sponsored links it is showing MNP ads for both Airtel and Tata Docomo. The Docomo ad is more informative while the Airtel one simply says move and get a surprise. Found it ironic that even on Rimweb (originally meant for RCDMA), RCOM has not given any MNP ads. Pah.

gyanesh 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2011 Dear all, I have a query. I have given a port-out request for my post-pay voda number and got a call from voda to remain with it with some offer.I did not accept the offer, and then executive told me that he would call me later after consulting with his senior. Now, suppose i do not receive a call from voda and neither i opt to port-out the number, what will happen after 02/02/2011 when the validity of UPC will expire ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KumaarShah 143 Report post Posted January 24, 2011 And according to the above link, the UPC is now valid for 15 days, you will remain on the existing network for 5 days (as per regulation) and on the 6th day, one can insert the new SIM / RUIM to switch on to the new network. Hi All Any reply to my question? Has anybody got port ID by SMSing "PORT 9*********" to 1900. I called R-CDMA cust care ..One gut said sir please sms "Port 9*********" . I did this and again same msg..I called again and finally lodged a complain. If anybody has got PORT ID please also tell me exact procedure Thanks Sumit You are following the correct procedure. No idea why you are not getting the UPC. I have got the UPC instantly for all my connections whether RCDMA, RGSM, Airtel or Voda. Only in the case of Voda, the UPC was not received on 20th Jan. It started working from 21st Jan. The following is from RCOM's MNP website: - From your existing mobile number please send a Port-Out request to your current operator by typing “ < Port > <space> < mobile number >” Send this SMS to 1900 (charges as per your current operator SMS rate) BTW, RCOM SMS is free while Voda charges 50ps, not sure about Airtel.
