Re: Porting to Fido delay
Fido's porting department/team has access to LNP request details.
The Fido representative either has access to the LNP report or is clueless.
LNP= Local Number Portability
The LNP details state whether the porting request was rejected. Was it? Find out if the porting request was actually rejected.
If no reason is provided by the representative, the person you're speaking to is guessing.
Porting out VoIP numbers, which are considered landlines (if the person you spoke to filled the form properly), can take over a week once the request has been received by Fongo.
Visit https://support.fongo.com/hc/en-us/arti ... -port-out-
"Number transfers will take an average of 7 business days to complete."
That's over a week.
Ensure that you selected "landline" when porting out.
Also ensure the transfer fee and other restrictions do not apply to you.
https://www.npac.com/number-portability/how-lnp-works (scroll down to "Steps in the LNP Porting Process").
Unless Fido claims Fongo is denying or blocking the porting request, the problem lies with Fido.
If it turns out that Fongo is blocking the port request for no valid reason, you can file a complaint with CCTS: https://www.ccts-cprst.ca/.
If you want suggestions from Fongo support staff, submit a ticket: https://support.fongo.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Choose "Port-Out Inquiry" for the final issue type.
Keep in mind that they may take up to a week to respond: https://status.fongo.com/.
If "Support System" indicates "Degraded Performance", ticket response time can take up to a week (or longer).

Re: Porting to Fido delay
Still waiting for to port out since three weeks now, Fongo rejecting the request from Fido without any reason and asking V2 request, after sent a V2 request by Fido and responding.

Within a span of 6 days, you've gone from waiting for a week to three weeks.iqbal_waleed wrote:[On Dec. 27th] Still waiting for to port out since three weeks now,
I question whether no reason is really provided to Roger's/Fido's porting department.
Your address should match what’s listed after logging in at https://account.fongo.com/admin/settings/911/#
Ensure "landline" was selected for Service Type, and ensure the $25 transfer fee doesn't apply to you: https://support.fongo.com/hc/en-us/arti ... -port-out-.
Otherwise, If it turns out that Fibernetics (the CLEC for Fongo's numbers) is blocking the port request for no valid reason, you can file a complaint with CCTS: https://www.ccts-cprst.ca/.
There's nothing further that any volunteer moderator can do here, and regular forum members don't have access to your account.

Re: Porting to Fido delay
