[VoiceOps] thinQ is making hay while Bandwidth is down

[Aryn Nakaoka 808.356.2901]

If there is a DDOS like the one that is happening to Bandwidth, would Thinq
even be able to port "internally"?

Knowing Thinq uses Bandwidth and Inteliquent... Bandwidth said porting was
disabled during the DDOS, so how would Thinq get them to port to
Inteliquent (assuming the same coverage / cost)?

Our ports take 9 working days, the losing carriers have days to respond.

Thanks,
Aryn
