These are the times that mobile service providers are obliged to process mobile ports, they affect all mobile providers industry wide.
Porting days are Monday to Friday 8am to 8pm (AEST) and 10am to 6pm Saturdays (AEST).
Sundays and most national public holidays are not porting days which means that a mobile service provider is not obliged to process a port request, however, some ports may still be processed outside of the normal porting hours.
We cannot guarantee when your port will, or will not, take place.
It is quite possible that a mobile port that is submitted outside of these hours could still be processed so you should only submit an order to port your number to Unwyred when you are ready for your service to move over
New number
If you’ve requested a new mobile number, your service should be activated almost instantly but can take up to 1 hour, but sometimes it can take longer, up to 4 hours in some circumstances and on rare occasions, 7-10 days.
Transferring your number
If you’re porting (transferring) your existing mobile number from another supplier, the service changeover can normally take around 15 minutes but can take 24 to 48 hours and is subject to ‘porting hours’.
The best thing to do is keep your old SIM card in your handset until it stops working, you will still be able to use your old SIM card until the port completes and your number moves to the Unwyred network.
Please note: A loss of service on the day of port is normal. This happens when your old provider is sending the number to us and generally lasts around 2 hours.
Porting hours are: (AEST)
We’re here to protect your mobile service.
Unauthorised transfers of mobile numbers between Telcos are rising and may lead to fraud and identity theft.
To protect you, we’ve implemented a process to verify number ownership prior to the transfer.
This involves sending a code to the number you’re transferring which must be confirmed by you before the transfer can proceed.
This is the safest, quickest and easiest way to transfer your number and why you should only activate when you have your phone.
You’ll need to check with your current telco if you’ll be charged early cancellation fees for transferring to Unwyred. In some cases you may also have a mobile handset repayment that you will need to payout.
If we have sent you a new SIM card and you need to transfer your service on to it, Please visit the Sim Activation link on our website and follow the instructions.
It is not possible to choose your new number when activating your service. We will email you your new number once you have activated it.
The most common reason why porting fails is due to a mismatch between the information provided to us and that held by your current provider.
We check the following when porting:
We also recommend you check the details with your current provider and verify that your number is still connected and active as we cannot port a disconnected number.
Once you’ve done this, you’ll need to start your activation over again.
