[asterisk-users] Number portability in other parts of the world.

[Dean Collins]

Number portability exists in Australia but mobile numbers only across
mobile carriers and 'pstn' numbers only across pstn carriers.

 

Some of the earlier Voip providers (yeh I'm talking about you Faktortel
<http://deancollinsblog.blogspot.com/2007/06/faktortel-sucks.html>  )
don't allow portability as they assigned numbers that belonged to isdn
100 unit 'pstn blocks', but apart from that it's a pretty good system.

Subject: [asterisk-users] Number portability in other parts of the
world.

 

Are phone numbers portable in other countries?

 

Are the same rules and conditions that exist here in the States mirrored
elsewhere?

 

How does a person in Europe go fully VoIP and still keep the main
number? 

 

Do they use call forwarding? 

 

Is their another way to use an origination carrier without loosing your
number?
