possibility: amending the mobility plan

Posted on Oct 26, 2018 by Ifi Reporter - Dan Bielski

The Ministry of Communications is considering amending the mobility plan in such a way as to prevent the possibility of portability for a "split business subscriber" telephone number. This subscriber is usually identified by name with the phone number, the details of the subscriber and his credit card details are in the possession of the licensee, and in many cases he even receives an invoice and participates in the part or the monthly payment to the licensee.
In addition, the Ministry is considering amending the mobility plan in such a way as to prevent blocking the possibility of carrying out portability for a private subscriber's telephone number to prevent a delay in portability of the license holders and shorten the mobility of the number range
Today, the portability of a number range in contrast to the standard portability of a single number is not explicitly defined in the mobility plan.
The firm is also considering revising the Mobility Plan so that the number portability time will be the same as the number one: half an hour for the subscriber range for the MRT service and the time for the number range for subscribers to a fixed-line telephone service.
Complaints received at the Ministry indicate that there is a practice of private marketers who do not have a license to carry telephone numbers that were never used by real subscribers, from one licensee to another, and that is actually fictitious. This is common in numbers associated with Prepaid packages, which are marketed by private marketers and never loaded.
Fictional mobility is an abuse of the mobility process set by the ministry. This mobility, as mentioned, wastes the numbering resource of the abandoned licensee, for unnecessary operational activity by all the companies and undermines the reliability of the periodic mobility data reports.
In view of the aforesaid, the Ministry is considering permitting the blocking of the possibility of carrying out a telephone number to which no outgoing calls have ever been made except for emergency calls.
