The Philippines ' major Mobile Network Operators (MNO), namely, DITO, Globe, and Smart Communications have successfully concluded the initial tests of their technical capabilities and interoperability last July 14, 2021, in line with the government's implementation of the Mobile Number Portability (MNP) Act. The joint effort will soon allow customers the option to keep their mobile numbers permanently, even when they change network providers or switch subscriptions. With the Mobile Number Portability Act, we have broken down barriers and have given the Filipinos the power of convenience to finally switch to their preferred service provider,” said Atty. 11202, also known as the Mobile Number Portability Act, ensures that mobile phone users can keep their numbers even when they transfer to another service provider or when they switch their subscription from postpaid to prepaid, or vice-versa. The National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) will soon implement the Mobile Number Portability Act that allows users to retain their mobile numbers even if they switch telco starting September 30, 2021. 11202, the law makes mobile numbers “portable,” ensuring consumers that they may keep their mobile numbers for free if they ever switch to a different telco provider or change their subscription plans from prepaid to postpaid and vice versa.
