Usually the LECs want all carriers who port from them to sign a porting agreement and get set up with Verizon's LSR system to submit port requests. It sounds to me like maybe Commio has not done that. I would find out if they have ever submitted port requests to Verizon in the past. They may

Well, *IF* VZW had never had a porting relationship with that SPID, they would have to communicate some how to establish that relationship. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com - Original

IMHO there is no need to call anybody. The guy in VZW just does not know the work. If I undertook you correctly. On Wed, Nov 10, 2021 at 3:17 PM Carlos Alvarez wrote: > Commio/thinQ is a fancy API over Intelliquent et al, but seems to maybe > have their own SPID? I've never worked in "real"

Once you have the actual LEC information (and fail at making anything work directly), complain to the PUC. People tend to pay closer attention then. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com -

It's actually been escalated to their porting supervisor, from the first two tiers. Not sure how to go above that guy. On Wed, Nov 10, 2021 at 1:11 PM Oren Yehezkely wrote: > Carlos, > > From my experience, this is the employee with VZW not knowing how to port > a landline (I am assuming you

Carlos, >From my experience, this is the employee with VZW not knowing how to port a landline (I am assuming you are VoIP obviously). What we do is ask our customers to find a rep that knows how to do it or know what they are doing, or simply ask for a supervisor. And we emphasize that they

Commio/thinQ is a fancy API over Intelliquent et al, but seems to maybe have their own SPID? I've never worked in "real" telecom so I don't know those deep details of the porting process. VZW's message said they were trying to contact Commio and couldn't get anyone to answer a phone. Not

We actually are a small provider and when I went to find out how to do this, I was told to sign into the NPAC helpdesk, bulletin boards, contacts, then search by region, SPID, etc. Then ask how to establish said relationship. I've heard it referred to various ways, trading partner, carrier

A customer is porting a number to VZW, and they can't figure it out. They called me to ask if I had "more info" to help them port out from Commio. My return call went to VM, so I don't have more info, but thought I'd ask here on the list. Any ideas on how this can be, or what to recommend? I
