[VoiceOps] Can carriers still refuse port-outs if an account is being closed?

[Carlos Alvarez]

The customer said they tried to do that, but was told that they can either
cancel the account in full, or not, but can't cancel the renewal.

Even if they do, it leaves the question of being billed for one more month
of service they won't be using.
