What is stopping you from porting back ?
Doesn't this largely depends on the telco that you are trying to transit to ?

CL doesn't allow me to port back the line from MR hence checking if there is a minimum cool down period

Did they say no right where you entered your number ?

If you get a response almost immediately, I suspect this is the reason :
There is some mention that a number can be only ported once a month, not sure if it is a generally porting rule or specific to certain telcos. Also is once a month is referring to calender month or what.

Beyond that the transit telco can impose minimum subscription period, eg Simba & eight is 30D. CL told me early next month. Maxx is supposedly anytime, but could be subjected to the once a month thing mentioned above. It appears to be possible to get the telco to waive off this requirement if you can justify it.

Kelvin is probably the expert on this matter.

I suspect this to be the case. The system flat out refuses to allow the number to be ported back in at the automatic transfer in page. So checking with everyone to see if anyone had any experience porting back in.

My shortest porting back was 2 months after ported out, no issue.

Yeah, selecting SIngtel should work too if CMLink isn't present.

So I can activate my circle lime first
choose a new number
and wait for nov to number port?
just pay 3 months of $3.50?

Better check with CL if can wait to port in later, never tried that so can't advise.

CL has some strange wording regarding port in after first 30days, so would be wise to check if that is your plan.

I successfully ported in to circles today from cmlink

Port in began on Tuesday night around 11.30pm

I feel do the porting few days before the new cycle starts to be safe

Why is my first bill amount $55.69 for a $3.30 plan? Has anybody got this charge? The data changed to 3GB.

On the first bill in the app ? There is some obvious errors there, and that is not official anyway.
The promo codes is not applied on the Nov charge, nor is it applied fully for the Sep/Oct charge.
Waiting for the actual bill first.
