Contact your Verizon Wireless Account Manager for port requests over 25 lines or VIP port requests. Communicate within your company that only authorized personnel are able to make changes to your company’s accounts, including porting. Have your old service provider information available to ensure accuracy in the data relayed to Verizon Wireless (i.e. copy of OSP current bill, passwords). Do not cancel service with your old provider before requesting to port in to Verizon Wireless - cancelled numbers are not eligible to be ported. Submit a request to OSP to remove all number blocks and passwords at both the account level and the line level. Request a confirmation number if applicable.
