Note: Certain small wireline companies may have an exemption from the porting requirements if they have received a waiver from their state public service commission. Customers who want to port a wireline number to a wireless phone, and are told that they cannot, should contact their state public service commission to find out whether their wireline company has been granted a waiver. A directory of state public service commissions can be found at www.naruc.org/commissions.cfm. I was not able to find my PUC list of exemptions but my telephone company was on it. I should look again as they recently changed names. On Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 12:49 PM, Chuck McCown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am a rural telecom, one of the most rural in the nation.
