The team will perform a network assessment to evaluate the current condition of each location and share any recommended adjustments.

They will work with you to manage and optimise your account and help to address any support issues that may arise.
Porting Numbers
If you would like to keep using a phone number that is currently active with another provider, CloudCall gives you the option to port your existing number to CloudCall (geographic, landline, national, toll-free, mobile numbers, etc).
Before initiating a porting request, please make sure that you are a customer of CloudCall and have a signed contract in place. CloudCall does not support number porting for trial accounts, however, our Technical Services / Pre-sales team can run portability checks for you.
If you would like to port your existing phone number over to your CloudCall account, please be aware you may need to provide any/all the following information:
For UK Number Porting:
– The number you would like to port-in.
– The current carrier of the number(s) (you may need to check with your current retailer, as to who is the underlying carrier/provider).
– Service address registered for each number.
– A copy of the most recent invoice from your current provider.
– Name and contact details of the person responsible for approving porting at your company.
For US/Canada Number Porting:
– The number you would like to port-in.
– The current carrier of the number(s) (you may need to check with your current retailer, as to who is the underlying carrier/provider).
– Service address registered for each number.
– A copy of the most recent invoice from your current provider.
– Name and contact details of the person responsible for approving porting at your company.
– You may be required to provide a PIN, generated by your current provider in order to validate the some/all of the porting numbers.
– You may be able to ask your current provider for a Customer Service Record (CSR) that will have the correct information on it needed to port out numbers.
CloudCall works with global operators to port umbers for many others countries around the world, each country has its own set of number registration authorities. These authorities oversee and regulate porting activities in their respective countries, and each country has its own set of requirements for porting and purchasing numbers. It is a good idea to understand and confirm all of this information with CloudCall, understand the porting lead times and documentation requirements before completing and contractual obligations.
Please note the requirements for purchasing new numbers and porting numbers sometimes differ even within the same country. CloudCall can help you to understand this.
