Mobile Number Portability (MNP) in Malaysia

Mobile number portability (MNP) is the freedom to move from one mobile operator to another within the same market, while retaining your mobile number. It allows the customer to change his/her mobile service provider without losing his/her mobile number.

MNP is a government directive and regulatory requirement. There will be a Limited Live Trial from 29 August, to early October 2008. MNP will officially be launched in Malaysia from early October 2008 onwards.

As requested by the regulatory body, all media enquiries about this should be directed to the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (SKMM) - Corporate Communications Department at Tel: 03-8688 8000 or Email: ccd@cmc.gov.my. Further information is also available on the SKMM website at www.skmm.gov.my.

Consumers may also refer to www.skmm.gov.my for more information or call our customer service hotline at 1 800 82 1123.

FAQ on the phased launch of MNP and the limited live trial


1. When is MNP going to be implemented?

MNP will be implemented in phases, first on a limited live trial basis in the Klang Valley (“Limited Live Trial”) on 29 August 2008 and followed by a nationwide launch (“Nationwide Launch”) in early October 2008.

2. Who can port during the Limited Live Trial?

All*consumers holding individual accounts can port.

1. Prepaid users can port from 29 August onwards.
2. Postpaid users can port from 15 September onwards.

*Business customers and organisations can only port after the Nationwide Launch.

3. Where do I make a port request during the Limited Live Trial?

You will need to go to the new mobile service provider’s service centre, not your existing one. As porting services will be launched in Klang Valley first, please take note that during the Limited Live Trial your porting requests can be made to the branches/service centres as listed in the Appendix.

4. As this is a Limited Live Trial, will there be a limit on the number of ports
per day?

Each mobile service provider will accept 100 port requests per day during the Limited Live Trial. However requests that exceed that limit for the day will still be taken and be placed in the queue for the following day.
