"If the customer contacts the DSP by phone the PAC may be issued
immediately... Written confirmation of the port authoriation and PAC (or
reason for its non issue) must be despatched to the customer within 2
working days of the authorisation request."
"whether or not the PAC is issued to the customer over the phone, a
written confirmation of the porting authorisation and PAC must be
despatched to the customer by the DSP within 2 working days of receipt
of the request".
DSP is Donor Service Provider - the current network operator)
Sounds like Vodafone didn't meet either of those requirement - ie.
provide PAC within 2 days of request, and written response to that
request sent within 2 days.
