Number Porting Updates

July 16th, 2008 @ 10:04 am

When people find out about ooma, one of the first questions they ask is: “Can I keep my existing home phone number?” Absolutely! We handle all the number transfer details with your phone carrier and make it work for you seamlessly. But up until now, the cost to port your old number to ooma was $79 because of the time-consuming process of working with the carriers to get the number porting done. We’ve received a lot of feedback from potential customers who felt the price was a little steep. And we agree.

So here’s what we’ve decided to do. We’ve lowered the cost of porting to $39.99 or free if you sign up for an annual subscription to ooma Premier. Customers who previously purchased a number port for $79 will be provided with a full year of ooma Premier service at no extra charge.

ooma Premier is our premium service — sort of ooma on steroids. You’ll get advanced calling features like the Instant Second Line, Message Screening, multiple phone numbers, Send-to-Voicemail, voicemail forwarding and more! A great value at $99.99 per year is made even better with the addition of complimentary number porting. You can test-drive ooma Premier for free, for 60 days, when you buy an ooma system. Now, go ahead and take it for a whirl!
