[AusNOG] NBN Number Managed Disconnection process

[Cameron Murray]

Andrew,

They are not *meant* to cancel a service with an active order/modification
against it; however we also arrange an exchange based divert to a temporary
phone number just in case.

We've been burn't also a number of times by this and currently fighting
Telstra to get a customers number back because it was disconnected in
October last year even though it was mid port and had an Exchange based
divert active yet now it's cancelled but the forward still works - Go
Figure!

Sorry nothing useful there.
