Change from one vendor to another (known as porting) on a University of Alberta corporate account (Example: Moving a service from Rogers corporate account to Bell Mobility corporate account) Additionally, instructions will be provided for changing the user's name on the account. Applicability This article is for use by Departmental Telecom contacts. Procedure Transfer of Responsibility (ToR)/Porting a Service The Departmental Telecom Contact will need to provide the approval for the Transfer/Porting of the service and therefore will need to initiate the request and submit the order in TEMS application To move a mobile account from the University of Alberta corporate account to a private account To move a mobile account from private/personal to the University of Alberta corporate account (the order must have the user's personal mobile account number noted in the comment section.) To move a mobile number from vendor to another (both on corporate accounts) Bell Mobility ToR from Corporate to Personal Departmental Telecom Contact submits an order (How To) in TEMS and CGI will process the order to Bell Mobility Bell will put a memo on the account authorizing the ToR and then the user must call the regular Bell Customer Service team @ 1-800-665-7889 to process it. There are no fees for this type of ToR and the individual will be responsible for the number, hardware and existing contract as of the day they complete the ToR. If the user ports-out the number to another service provider (i.e. TELUS or Rogers) then the line will be cancelled on the corporate account as of the end of the bill cycle and any applicable cancellation fees will be applied. ToR from Personal to Corporate The account holder of the personal account needs to contact their regular customer service team to give authorization to the UofA to take over the account. Departmental Telecom Contact submits an order in TEMS and CGI will process the order to Bell Mobility. Once the account holder gives authorization for the ToR, Bell will move the number, hardware and existing contract onto UofA Corporate account and UofA will assume responsibility for all of it. There is a $20.00 fee for this type of ToR. If the line is being ported-in from another company (i.e. TELUS or Rogers) then Bell will treat this as a new activation and the account with the other provider is cancelled. TELUS Mobility ToR from Corporate to Personal Transfer of ownership can occur anytime during contract if both incoming/outgoing clients give permission. When a mobile number is moving to a personal account, the departmental telecom contact submits an order (How To) in TEMS and CGI (corporate Authorized Administration on behalf of IST telecom) will process the order to release the number. TELUS Mobility will then add a memo to the account and the user must visit a TELUS Dealer or call the Client Care Dept @ 1-866-558-2273 from the mobile phone, to complete the move. (The University of Alberta does not create consumer accounts.) If the user ports-out the number to another service provider (i.e. Bell or Rogers) then the line will be cancelled on the corporate account as of the end of the bill cycle and any applicable cancellation fees will be applied. ToR from Personal to Corporate Transfer of ownership can occur anytime during the contract if both the incoming /outgoing clients give permission. If a personal mobile number is moving to the corporate account, the personal client must have a memo added to their personal account by calling the Client Care Dept to release the mobile number to the corporate client. Once that is done, the departmental telecom contact will submit an order in TEMS for CGI to process the order to move the mobile number to the corporate account. If the line is being ported-in from another company (i.e. Bell or Rogers) then TELUS will treat this as a new activation and the account with the other provider is cancelled. Change of Authorized User 1. The departmental Telecom Contact will submit a request (How To) in TEMS to have the authorized user (billing name) of a mobile number changed. 2. CGI will process the order to the appropriate mobile service provider.
