What are the benefits of porting?
The main benefit of mobile number portability (MNP) is freedom of choice. You are free to choose a new mobile service provider without losing your existing number. If you are not satisfied with your existing provider, you don’t have to stay just to keep your number. If you are in business, keeping your number when changing phone companies means you will avoid missing calls, reprinting stationery and having any signage redone. For individuals it means avoiding the inconvenience of having to notify friends and associates that you’ve changed your number.
