Porting question

Post by Belosh » Mon Oct 26, 2009 7:47 am

i have a telo. i had integrated with landline and my porting was supposed to happen today. i plan on cancelling att which when i called them, they said when the port occurred, it would automatically be disconnected. well, i disconnected my telo from the wall and reset it. calls will come in and out from my telo. i have a phone in a wall jack in the kitchen and it is still getting a dial tone and can make calls. any idea why this is the case? i figured that phone should no longer work.

The port hasn't happened yet or att hasn't disconnected the line yet. My line wasn't completely disconnected until 3 days after the port.

Can you log into My Ooma with your ported number?
If you can, then my second statement applies, ie. att hasn't completely disconnected your land line yet.
