This brings back memories. I was working for Cingular when WLNP was first introduced. People were constantly trying to swap and chase after the deals, because every carrier was trying to outdo the next with a better deal.
At the time, Verizon system, apparently just didn’t work. We were seeing greater than 90% failures porting from Verizon to Cingular. The Verizon system would release the number, but then never send us the request to transfer. We would call Verizon’s WLNP support and they would just shrug and say there was nothing they could do. There were so many irate people that had lost their numbers.
We found sprint to be the most reliable
It was a long couple of months while the bugs were worked out.
