Lightning Fast VoIP Landline Number Porting: Completed in Just One Week!
I was initially told it could take anywhere from 10 to 20 days, which I was mentally prepared for. However, to my surprise and delight, the process was completed in just one week!
From the moment I initiated the porting request to the moment my number was successfully transferred, everything went smoothly.

Thank you . The number porting is now completed, even earlier than anticipated (from reading the PlusNet Forum VoIP topics .)"
Hope this is of some use to members of this forum who are keen on keeping their landline numbers after the switch over from FTTC to FTTP.
