This is
the solution only when a carrier
has not or is unable to use the recommended cancel process as
documented in the NANC Process Flows.
Most
wireless carriers have agreed to follow the following two
scenarios. Other carriers can have different intervals and
processes for determining when a port is abandoned. Those
carrier’s business rules for identifying an abandoned port and
when and how they will purge the abandoned port from their
records will be posted on their LNP web sites.
Scenario
1 – This scenario applies to the service providers that use the
NPAC activation notice before disconnecting the porting end
using customer. When the Old Service Provider (OSP) has
confirmed the port request but does not receive an activation
notice from NPAC, they can consider the port request abandoned
30 calendar days after the due date. In a similar process, the
NPAC purges pending Subscription Versions (SVs) 30 days after
their due dates have passed.
Scenario 2 - The OSP has
responded to a port request with a Resolution Required requiring
subsequent activity from the NSP. If no subsequent activity has
been received within 30 calendar days, then the port may be
considered abandoned. |
