Secure your off-net Lumen numbers with a port-out PIN

You can now add a port-out PIN to your off-net Bandwidth phone numbers hosted on Lumen’s network, managed through either the API or the Portal UI. Once a PIN is added, anyone attempting to port that number away from Lumen must provide the correct PIN — a matching PIN allows the port to proceed, while an incorrect or missing PIN blocks the request. This works the same way PINs already work for on-net numbers, and end users should choose and manage their own PINs.

This feature is optional and requires no action on your part. Your current inventory won’t change if you choose not to use it.
