<div dir="ltr">Porting for VOIP has calmed down a lot now.<div><br></div><div style>Early days (or even upto a year ago) it was really tough to get numbers to go through to VOIP. Recently the ACMA / TIO have cracked down on VOIP providers and made them pretty much as liable as a regular telco is now. With the crack down came more readiness to port numbers and less issues. Additionally, with Symbio's recent foray into the carrier world they brought with them the ability to bridge the gaps between the VOIP world and regular POTS, which I think has made it easier for everyone.</div>

<div>Hey All,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Anyone else having issues with Symbio porting numbers from their newly acquired GoTalk without notifying their clients ?</div>
<div>Then actually breaking it and not knowing what’s going on and pretending like a port never happened ?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Seems like they just ported a truck load of numbers and emergency ported back… then failure
