摘要:With current scenario, if a customer is dissatisfied on the service by mobile operator either he has to reluctantly accept the service or switch to another service provider that he wishes. In this paper I am highlighting the importance of mobile number portability (MNP) which enables mobile telephone users to retain their mobile telephone numbers when changing from one mobile network operator to another. And requirements and compatibility for switching the network as mobile number is used for all business and family correspondence. This paper provides an in-depth description of how it affects the switching cost for consumer, it also include various flavors of call routing implementation, mobile messages (SMS, MMS) to a number once it has been ported. Despite of so many networks why user wants to switch to other network will be discussed in this paper. The research paper addressed various arguments related to the pros and cons of mobile number portability such as How Could MNP Disrupt Mobile Service Providers and How can Mobile Service Providers Benefit from MNP? A more pronounced effect of MNP is likely to be an increased focus on improving the customer experience. The research papers also give an insight into the disruptive effect of MNP on Indian Telecom Industry.
