Porting Phone Numbers

Porting Phone Numbers

The RingLogix porting system is an automated self-service LNP management tool that allows Partners to submit port request directly to our underlying carriers. By following our simple 3 step wizard you can transfer your customers numbers quickly and efficiently while reducing provider side paperwork and ticket follow ups.

Our managed LNP solution is a concierge service that increases port success rates and greatly decreases common issues with rejections due to informational mismatches. Should a common rejection for address or name mismatch occur our system will automatically attempt to retrieve the correct information via a CSR request and automatically update the order for you.

This article will walk you through the 3 steps for submitting a port request. Look for more information below on the typical life cycle of a port request
