<p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Hey
all, <br>
<br>
I had tried to find out about this a while ago: Once number portability is
introduced, how do subscribers know that they are making off-net calls? <br
clear=all>
<br>
Have the mobile operators made any provisions? <br>
Does CCK require operators to provide some sort of signal? <br>
Or would Dr Ndemo be able to answer? <br>
<br>
Thanks, Andrea <br>
