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

[Alexander Lopez]

I think it would be a good idea to start an item in the Wiki about this.

Can anyone else chime in for their countries??

Others in the EU, Eastern, Far East?

So Far I have:

Australia:	PSTN to PSTN and Cell to Cell are OK , but Cell to PSTN and PSTN to Cell are NOT OK.	Dean Collins

Poland:	Not Today but possibly in 2009 	Daniel		

UK:	Portable if Telco has a porting agreement. Not all Telco have agreements in place. 	Steve Kennedy

France: Porting from France Telcom to another provider not an issue, however if porting between other Telco's, Telco's must have porting agreement between them.	Randulo
