but that doesn't seem excessive just knowing its AT&T. We fight with them
constantly about this in NC (formerly Bellsouth for the most part)
Just pray that they don't screw up anything in the port order or 25
days might turn into 45. Also they are notorious for porting early here
especially if they had a port date pushed out for some reason, I've seen it
twice where half the number still ported even though they themselves screwed up
the order and pushed out the port date. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

w:st="on">Florida</st1:place></st1:State> office from one floor to another
(same building, bigger space) – and their phone system from one AT&T PRI to
another. The new circuit is tested and turned up; however, the client elected
not to port the DIDs (there are 20 of them) at the time of the test and turn
up, because they were not ready to physically move (they needed another week to
get the new space ready, furniture-wise etc.). So they stayed in the old space
(using the old PRI etc.) for another week or so. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

color:#1F497D'>Now – less than a week later – they are being told by AT&T
that it will take 25 days to re-schedule the port of the DIDs. I do not have
much experience with Florida ISPs (and the client chose to do their own circuit
provisioning – they have a national contract with AT&T – so I do not know
all the details), but 25 days sounds excessive; I have seen 5- and 7-day delays
(one of which was in in fact in Florida, though not with AT&T), but nothing
even coming close to 25 days, which makes me wonder whether the client is
getting the right information. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
