What To Expect
When porting a number, the provider through which you currently have service is referred to as the ‘losing’ carrier while the new provider that you're porting a number to is referred to as the ‘winning’ carrier.
All port requests originate from the ‘winning’ carrier (in this case Salesmsg). You cannot initiate a port request from the ‘losing’ carrier. Some information related to your current service will be required:
