While porting your connection, there are a few important things that you should always keep in mind for successful delivery and activation of your new connection.
A. Unique porting code
UPC or Unique Porting Code is an important feature of porting your mobile number.
As per the new rules of TRAI, unique porting code is mandatory in order to port your number.
In order to generate a unique porting code, you need to send an SMS to 1900 in the below format:
PORT<space><mobile number>
For example:
PORT 9876543210
Once you send an SMS on the above format, you will get an SMS back on your phone within 15 minutes from 1901.
Share this code at the time of placing order of your SIM at 10digi.com.
The unique porting code stays valid for just 4 days, thus it is important to submit your porting request when you get unique porting code from TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India).
B. Advance Payment For Postpaid Connection
For successful porting, you must have paid all your dues with current operator to port out to a different operator.
Also, you should pay extra amount for usage during the 3 days of porting process.
In case of non-payment of the previous bills, your porting request can be rejected from the operator’s end. To avoid any rejections in the porting process, make sure you have paid your bills with advance payment of 3 days (for usage during porting process).
You can choose from:
-Port to Jio
