On this the thirteenth day after I ordered my phone number ported from Sprint PCS to T-mobile, something is happening. The number hasn’t ported yet: calls still ring through to my old phone and it can place outgoing calls, but calls between it and any other phone don’t quite work right: whichever end initiated the call cannot be heard at the other end.
I’m not sure whether I should take this as an encouraging sign or not.
Hooray for deregulation.
You may have worse things in store, although I switched *from* T-Mobile to Cingular. T-Mobile really dragged their feet. Even subject to $10k fines per day, they continued to update the ticket to a later hour, the following day, etc. Good luck! And if you’re used to relying on text msg’ing (especially from AIM to your phone)…
