need help with porting in phone number from Century Link

Been at it for over a month. Xfinity reps try but get nowhere. They asked me to call Century Link directly. CL said I should not be involved. Xfinity says my current PON expires tomorrow and we then have to start all over again.

How do I resolve this issue?

@XfinityRaul​ Not yet resolved but I do thank all Xfinity team for helping with this. Fingers crossed the number will be ported in successfully this week. I will update later this week to report status of the most recent port in requests from prior carrier.

I apologize. I thought I did it properly but I guess I didn't. I will not do it again now that I know how to do it.

The Xfinity team was able to resolve this issue at long last! They were persistent and kept me up to date along the way. Thank you Xfinity. I don't know exactly what the problem was, but I suspect it was something on the side of the previous provider. Xfinity team got it sorted out.
