I just created a FreshPHONE account and completed the RICA process.
I now want to port my Telkom landline number, but I get an error message: There seems to have been a problem please reload the page. If the problem persists please notify us with the problem and we will resolve it as quickly as possible. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks!
Hi Alta
Kindly advise on when you have received this sms, as Neotel has closed their prepaid division in August 2019.
Hi Andre,
I hope you are well. I will create a private ticket for you regarding this query.
Thank you.
HI there, I received confirmation that my Telkom number was successfully ported and I see it on my freshphone DID profile, but when I dial the number the physical telkom land line still rings.
Is there any additional step that needs to be followed?
If check my number here and it still shows as managed by telkom. https://www.porting.co.za/PublicWebsite/
Hi there, I ported my landline number using your porting service. I was told that porting would be done on the 4th of December, and I now see the number under my DID. But my physical landline is still active. I thought that the landline with Telkom is automatically cancelled as part of this process. Is my thinking correct or do I still have to cancel the landline with Telkom myself? If it is the latter, can I go ahead and do so? FP-PORTv2-00316

Hi Christo
Please mail port@freshphone.co.za with your request
Fresh Man,
I have previously ported my ADSL line to AXXESS more than 2 years ago.
I now wanted to port my home number to Freshphone and after paying the R 150.00 I was informed that I would be loosing my ADSL connection also. I don't want to loose my ADSL line. I was under the impression that it's no longer with Telkom any longer. Can you please advise?
Do I still need to cancel my TELKOM line with Telkom after my number has been ported or is the cancellation done automatically?
