Porting procedure
After the Number Porting all outgoing and incoming calls are over internet (VoIP). You therefore need absolutely an internet connection with any internet provider! (PLEASE NOTE: Should your internet contract be tied to a fixline phone number, you need to clarify the possibilities to keep the internet contract like for example the offer of Swisscom DSL@mobile).
The phone number contract will be terminated through the porting process and the phone number will be transfered to peoplefone. The porting documents have to be filled and signed from the proprietor of the number (Important: the name at the power of attorney has to be exactly the same as the proprietor of the number!). The number has still to be owned by the proprietor (the contract can be already terminated, but absolutely still on the period of notice!).
The number porting can only be done in Switzerland. The outporting of your number can be done anytime. Once the yearly fee is payed, it will not be reimbursed.
Porting Date
Peoplefone does the number portings always on the last Wednesday of each month. You can indicate the month you want or the next possible date (if the porting documents and payment arrives at peoplefone BEFORE the 15. of the same month).
