Welcome to the community forums, and thanks for taking the time to post, user_1bk9mj! For clarification, was this a phone number that was ported over from Xfinity to Century Link that needs to be ported back? Also, is the number still active with Century Link?

Yes, it needs to be ported back to Xfinity.  We believe it is still active with Century Link. Thank you for your help.

Got it, thanks for confirming! It's important that the number remain active before having it ported over, otherwise Century Links system may release it and the number may be lost. We can definitely look into having the number ported over! Please send us a direct message with your full name, name on the account (if different), and service address, and we'll get the ball rolling!
