Cell C says won’t charge porting fee
As part of MNP all network operators will be required to pay an administration fee to the Number Portability Company, which acts as the porting hub and will facilitate the porting process.
Cell C CEO Jeffery Hedberg said in a statement on Tuesday that Cell C has decided to bear this charge on behalf of people wishing to move to the Cell C network.
"By foregoing this charge, which could be unaffordable for many cell phone users, Cell C is solidifying its position on MNP and making it affordable for all.
"As part of its commitment to providing South Africans with an opportunity to move networks Cell C have decided to drop this charge if they move to Cell C," he said.
