Change mobile operator with your number unchanged

Within the next six months, mobile phone users in Bangladesh will be able to switch from one operator to another, without changing their numbers. The service to come under an option mobile number portability (MN P) is also an international practice to increase competitions among the operators and enhance their service quality. Zia Ahmed, chairman of Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (B T R C) said the commission has already made some guidelines to launch the service. It's possible to go for the M N P regime within the next six months, he said, adding that the plan was devised much before and work is going on.
