My highly unreliable and undependable source privy to ongoing
discussions on Mobile Number Portability is at it again. During
yesterday's meeting comprising all operators (Yu, Safaricom, Orange
and Airtel) with the regulator CCK, all operators confessed that they
are not ready to transition to MNP by April 1st.
Orange was the first to confess that thought they have been giving the
impression that they are ready for transition they actually are not.
What followed can only be termed as a scene from and Alcoholic
Anonymous meeting. Going in turns they confessed that they were having
issues transiting/terminating calls and there were glaring
irregularities with the Call Detail Records (CDR records). I did not
know this but ported calls will be subject to interconnection charges.
At the conclusion of it they all pleaded for an extension of the
deadline date by between 2-3 weeks but CCK dug their heels down with
words similar to those of Shariff Nassir "WAPENDE WASIPENDE", April
1st is cast in stone.
Though am not planning to port, can't wait to see how this story unfolds.
