Resolution

While this error can appear for a few reasons, here are the most common situations and solutions.

Toll Free Numbers

The uploaded bill's file size is too large. Re-upload your bill in a format that is 5MB or less (make sure it still lists the numbers being ported over).

US Number Port Requests

The address entered for the port request may have an incorrect Invalid number of digits for the zip code. Ensure that the zip code submitted is five digits long.

International Port Request Errors

Ensure that you have chosen to select a temporary number from your available numbers. If you don't have any international numbers for that particular country available, contact your sales representative to start the process of ordering temporary numbers.
