Those people who after May 1 want to choose Westel as their operator while keeping their telephone number may, from April 1, register the request for carrying their number via the Internet. It confirms Westel’s high expectations of number portability that the 06-30 subscriber base saw larger growth than that of the two competitors together over the past half year.

The Number Carry portal that can be reached from the Westel home page offers a registration form and all relevant information needed to understand the process. Several unique offers make the number carrying operation more comfortable, such as the free delivery for the applicant of the new Westel SIM card and/or telephone set ordered. Besides, in possession of the log-in ID and password sent to them, the customers keeping their phone number and choosing Westel as their new operator can also enter the closed Webshop surface and follow each step of the number carrying process.
More information on the number portability process and the portal can also be requested on the round-the-clock discount-rate telephone number 06-40-633-633 or by writing to the e-mail address szamhordozas@westel.hu. The trust demonstrated in the biggest Hungarian mobile operator in the context of the introduction of number portability creates an excellent opportunity for them to maintain the growth of their market share.
