This article will walk you through each of the fields of the eLOA form linked above and provide all the information you’ll need to successfully submit your port request.

In the large, white field, enter any number that you would like to have ported. Make sure that all of these numbers are from the same carrier and on the same account.

Separate numbers by a comma and a space.
Step 7: Electronically sign the eLOA document and click “Submit Signature.”

Type out your full name in the first field of the signature section, draw your signature in the second field, and then click “Submit Signature.” Your signature will then appear to the right of the second field.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Will I be charged for porting a new number in to Mongotel?
No. The port-in process itself is free for all Mongotel Clients. However, the changes made to your account during the porting process might incur additional charges. For example, it is free to port in a toll-free number, but it costs $5 per month to keep that number on your account.
How long does the port-in process take?
The average estimate is two to four weeks. That being said, many port-ins are successfully processed within two weeks. This is due primarily to factors outside of Mongotel’s control.
