Letter of Authorization

Thank you for choosing Home Telecom. Home Telecom local portability allows you to keep your current number while converting from your current service provider. In order to transfer your phone number, Home Telecom will work with your old service provider to ensure that your number is transitioned. We will keep you updated on the status of this request. Please do NOT cancel or place any new service orders with your current service provider. This may cause delays or you to lose the phone number before we can transfer it.

While most local phone numbers can be transferred from one provider to another, there may be cases where Home Telecom is unable to process a request to transfer a phone number. In the event that your phone number is not able to be transferred, we will notify you immediately and provide you with options regarding your Home Telecom service.

Your current service provider requires this Letter of Authorization as proof that you have explicitly authorized and requested that your current telephone number be transferred to another service provider. By filling in all fields below and signing and dating this letter, you authorize Home Telecom to initiate the process of transferring your telephone number so that Home Telecom may provide its service. You will then be able to use your old number with your new Home Telecom service.
