Hi, I was a charge.co customer a few years back. It was neat, and bummed it's no longer around. For this new service would customers own the phone numbers as long as they're paying for them? Could they be ported to another service?

Yeah I'm a little disappointed about how Charge turned out too. Working with Sprint was tough, I'll just leave it at that.

The question about porting is a good one, and I basically punted on making a decision until I could tell whether anyone was interested in the service. I am of course using Twilio under the hood, so porting out requires using their process, documented here: https://support.twilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/223179588-How-d...

It's a little cumbersome but I don't see any reason to prevent port-outs.
