How would the original carrier know? I've never seen anything about numbers being returned to us. Maybe my employees are ignoring them, maybe the emails are lost, maybe we have to fetch it from somewhere.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Say a subscriber ports a number to/from a different telco. Then, after some time, the subscriber decides they no longer want the phone number (or phone service in general). What should be done with this abandoned number? Should the number immediately be returned to the donor telco? Should the number be returned to the donor telco after aging? Is it permissible for the recipient telco to add this number to their inventory and then re-assign the number to a different subscriber? _______________________________________________ VoiceOps mailing list VoiceOps@voiceops.org https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpuck.nether.net%2Fmailman%2Flistinfo%2Fvoiceops&data=05%7C01%7Cgreg.stone%40race.com%7Cbc900d0c35e74b76f34308daadf1aa95%7Cc4f7941052bf4601be443afdc7670fe9%7C1%7C0%7C638013550723280018%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=8jxDiA2LWg3yPXDSnc5SbtsYYJ%2Bti3XcjX01bIohEFs%3D&reserved=0 _______________________________________________ VoiceOps mailing list VoiceOps@voiceops.org https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/voiceops _______________________________________________ VoiceOps mailing list VoiceOps@voiceops.org https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/voiceops -- Jeff Shultz Central Office Technician SCTC (503) 769-2125 Go Big Ask for Gig Like us on Social Media for News, Promotions, and other information!! https://www.instagram.com/sctc_sctc/ *** This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.
