I can see port in fees but port out fees? I cant pass along a 10 dollar port out fee to my customers and I sure can't eat it. for me to move 500 numbers to another provider would cost me 5k and I would just have to hope that the winning carrier would want the business enough to pay some of that On Wed, Aug 24, 2016 at 10:47 AM, CCI Michael Palmer < mpalmer at comediacommunications.com> wrote:
I've had $8-10 port in fees before with a major national carrier, they are always willing to work, I just ported 4500 numbers at $0. When I first was with them, I brought in about 2000 at $2 a pop. But in between those times I paid $8-10.

Im trying to negotiate a new orig carrier onboard and they have a 10 dollar port out fee. This would be a pretty staggering figure if I had to port out my TN's due to quality or similar issues.
I'm not naming names, thats not cool but at the same time before I sign anything it looks like I'm seeing a lot of 1 - 3 dollar port out fees on websites
I really want to get this number pushed down but don't want to be unreasonable, I just can't sign something where a port out fee is that high.
Whats the norm out there?
