In order to verify the feasibility of number portability, the Ministry of Industry in November 2010, were the first batch of LNP pilot (Tianjin, Hainan), in September 2014, we were the second batch of pilot number portability transfer network ( Jiangxi, Hubei, Yunnan).
LNP speaking quite simple, but really that complicated?
A user portability process go network, similar to the reality of transnational migration, involving packages, credit balance, integration, benefits, family networks, etc., as well as third-party systems of the account authentication (such as banking, Paypal, micro letter, QQ, etc. ). At present, the LNP need to cover about 1.6 billion mobile phone card!
Xiang Ligang communications industry observers have been estimated to be in the country to promote technological innovation in order to achieve number portability, at least need to invest billions of dollars; the implementation of the transformation of the three basic telecommunications business networks and operating systems, complex projects, the scale Globally large is unprecedented; the application you want to turn the phone number bundled together with the network, the need for third-party platforms banking, insurance, securities and other internet companies as well as synchronize transformation, even greater works; phone number information has been widely used in applications in all walks of life, to maintain legacy applications are not affected, businesses need applications synergy to ensure the user experience "number portability."
Are you ready LNP yet?
The first step, the query turn carrying qualifications (roll-out the current operator), send SMS content "CXXZ # # Name ID number" (note the content of messages without the quotation marks), to the home operator (10086 Mobile Unicom Telecom 10010 10001);
Note: If you send the text message did not receive any reply, the phone number is not possible within the current LNP range (such as 157,165,170,171,188 number segment), may have to wait until 2020, dates to the Ministry of Industry the notice shall prevail.
The second step, apply for authorization code (roll-out the current operator), send SMS content "SQXZ # # Name ID number" (note the content of messages without the quotation marks), to the home operator (10086 Mobile Unicom Telecom 10010 10001);
The third step is to carry valid documents (usually the ID card), phone cards and an authorization code, you want to go into the operating room for the operator's new package;
Complete, simple bar
What is the status of number portability?
The author November 8, Zhejiang Province, the three operators to test the support for number portability, and with a look
China Mobile
to send SMS content CXXZ John Doe # # 330101199911088998-10086 query whether they have the qualifications to bring turn, mobile command reply CXXZ open only for some users, it seems also need to wait until the end.
China Telecom
to send SMS content CXXZ # John Doe # 330101199911088998-10001 query whether they have the qualifications to bring turn, telecommunications reply to the limit specified service user participation, but also to remind the effects of the roll-out may cause, it seems to wait until the end.
China Unicom
to send SMS content CXXZ # John Doe # 330101199911088998-10010 query whether they have the qualifications to bring turn, because the cards do not have China Unicom, have not been done to verify this, I suppose, and the results of the above two the same.
Virtual Network Operator (snail-Mobile, for example)
try to send a short message content CXXZ # John Doe # 330101199911088998-10086 query whether they have the qualifications to bring turn, did not receive any reply, this year seems to be gone.
There are more than 20 days can apply for number portability, this time has been busy it? Of course not!
Ask customer service operators fight ahead, some packages and services are not to be drained away in advance; there is a balance of the original number can be forwarded to friends, or to the operating room in line for a refund (recommended 6 month after a number of go out of account handling);
Then the operators want to look for transference, what are your favorite packages, find out in advance with friends around to find out, to avoid the pit again;
There is one very important thing, at this time of waiting, the operator can not send any promotions, acting by a long, careful look at the agreement, there a few years can not switch to other networks, or how many years can not retire package provisions!
I do not intend to number portability, but also to do something?
If you're ready to buy a new card to receive a special code, you can try 0 0 monthly minimum guarantee of telecommunications iFree card, snail-free card, A Fuka, Conghua cards;
If you are ready security number (the package rates to a minimum), you can try to move eight yuan to enjoy fly package, China Unicom 5 yuan card, three yuan Big Three telecom package;
If you have more than three cards, but do not want to bring two mobile phones, you can try "my letter" software (stakeholders: "my letter" developer), free synchronize text messages to another piece of card works as follows:
choose a cell phone to be phased out, plug in the card, connect the power and WiFi, at home <===> content of messages sent to mobile phones carry transit server <===> after encryption, real-time receive incoming SMS
Finally, I wish everyone a successful switch to other networks ^ _ ^
