MNP DETAILS
Mobile Number Portability (MNP) is a service that allows Mobile
Subscribers to change the Mobile Network Operator without changing the
existing Mobile Number and Code (e.g., 0364 1234567 can be shifted to
any other operator with the same number & code, i.e., 0364 1234567
and vice versa); conversely one can retain his/her mobile number while
enjoying the services (network) of any other operator.
MNP is therefore a service for the mobile phone subscribers to enjoy the flexibility of using the network of their choice, without the limitation of changing the Mobile Number associated with them and as a result encourages fair competition amongst Mobile Network Operators to provide better services and packages for customer retention.
Thus with the advent of MNP, subscribers do not have be bound to any one Mobile Network Operator, as they can 'Port' to any other Mobile Network Operator (terms and conditions apply) which suits them.
Pakistan is the first country in South Asia to have implemented MNP in March 2007.
