Didn’t like the services of your current operator and wanted to avail MNP? Moved to a different state and wanted to avail NMNP? Planning to switch to Vodafone? Interested or want to stick with prepaid?

Be prepared, you may end up with some situations like below.
1. Experience with MNP : Delhi, Andrews Ganj
Donor Operator : Airtel DL | Recipient Operator : Vodafone DL | Requested : Prepaid migration
Refusing to port into to prepaid citing reasons – porting to prepaid is not possible but you can port into postpaid. Just wanted to reiterate/question –where on official statements and regulations is this point mentioned? Why are Vodafone store executives misleading customers and directly or indirectly forcing them to postpaid segment when a customer is not interested? Are the executives trained that way to gain huge postpaid base or is it individual interest ?
2. Experience with NMNP : Bengaluru, Kundalahalli gate
Donor Operator : Idea Cellular AP | Recipient Operator : Vodafone KA | Requested : Prepaid migration
Refusing to port into to prepaid segment citing reasons – National Mobile number portability to Vodafone prepaid at this time is not possible, only to postpaid segment is possible.
Confirmation 1 with the executive : Are you sure that prepaid to prepaid is not possible? Yes, checked with our internal team, they confirmed it’s not possible.
Confirmation 2 with the executive after 2 days : Yes, its not possible at this time, may be prepaid to prepaid porting will be facilitated by Vodafone later.
