In the first 30 minutes, the port is being triggered with the losing carrier.
The carrier then has 1 hour after the allotted time to perform tests on their side and provide us with an update that the routing has completed.
The last 30 minutes is our window (after receiving confirmation of the routing completion notice), to perform tests on our end and if successful, we mark the request completed.
Porting outside of business hours
Not supported
Routing updates are performed manually by the losing carriers during business hours.
The numbers have to be broadcast prior to the port and at the time of the port completion.
