Carriers Still Trying Last Minute Delays On Number Portability
from the get-over-it-already! dept
This just never ends... While most of the major wireless carriers have given up trying to stop wireless local number portability (and in the case of Verizon Wireless, publicly embraced number portability), it appears that some of the smaller carriers are now making their last minute desperation play to stop it. A group representing smaller rural carriers has given the FCC an ultimatum, saying that if they don't stop number portability by tomorrow, they'll go to court to get portability delayed. They claim that number portability leads to an unfair competitive situation where the bigger carriers can stomp on the smaller ones. The FCC's response? Nope. Number portability is going into effect Monday no matter how much carriers of all sizes complain about it.
