It is very possible that you will find a better plan and service for other telecom operator and would like to avail of their services. There was a time when changing operator meant a change of number. However, nowadays you can port your number from old operator to a new operator without much hassle. All thanks to the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), the fear of losing customers because of porting forced telecom companies to provide better services.
