Porting to VC query

[mickmax]

Hi all

I'm on MTN prepaid & want to port to VC prepaid. Bought SIM card from store, RICA'd, etc, didn't activate new SIM. Sent portme SMS with SIM card number and got a message back saying port request successful, will happen that evening - which it never did.

When I got around to phoning VC they say that because my 082 number had previously been on a VC contract (many years ago), that they cannot port back to VC??

Surely that can't be right?

Best to probably go into a store and demand until its done, if thats what you wish for.
However, probably a sign that you should try a network that actually welcomes your business
