Possible port rejection reasons

While we do our best to prevent it, it does sometimes happen that a port request is rejected. The most common rejection reasons are noted below. As you can see, details matter and this is why we ask you to triple-check all the information you provided before submitting your port request. 

  • Incorrect end user name
  • Incorrect service address
  • Number is not active

Porting checklist

  • LOA is filled out, dated, and signed
  • Latest invoice from current carrier
  • All numbers are active with your current carrier
  • All numbers in your account are porting over or you’ve disassociated them from the other numbers in your account with your current provider
  • You’ve provided a desired port date in compliance with the SLT (*Dialpad will do its best to meet this date but there is no guarantee.) If no date is provided we will port the numbers ASAP.
