There will be a race called 'Online Jump'.

Unless something changes, from December 31st onwards, customers will be able to proactively choose their mobile telecommunications service provider, instead of being "stuck" with one network provider because they "happened" to be associated with a particular phone number.

The benefits of mobile number portability are easily apparent: it gives customers the opportunity to choose the service provider they find most useful; and it forces mobile operators to improve both service and product quality to retain and attract customers.

This means a new kind of competitive "war," escalating in the truest sense, as digital resources that were originally owned by competitors now have the potential to become one's own, and the reverse is also entirely possible.

"Online shopping" - more opportunities for those who love promotions.

Vietnam currently has three major mobile telecommunications operators with the highest competitive opportunities due to their brand, existing customer base, infrastructure, and technical network: MobiFone, Viettel, and Vinaphone.

From this point on, many customers are eagerly anticipating the opportunity to switch networks as needed, while keeping their phone numbers intact—a chance they never had before. On some forums, although not overly active, many people have already started discussing and suggesting the creation of groups to monitor promotional programs, reward opportunities, or customer appreciation programs from network providers, so they can switch networks in time.

Many customers envision a scenario where, in addition to switching networks as needed, people can also "browse" different network providers to experience and enjoy programs and events like those mentioned above.

In reality, it's entirely possible to "turn around" your phone number, but there are conditions that not everyone can meet. If you consider your phone number a "passport," then to switch from one network to another, you need to have your "identity verified," "not violating the law," not "serving a sentence," or not violating any regulations that have been set out to obtain that "visa" to the "promised land."

Specifically, according to the Ministry of Information and Communications, in order to switch networks, subscribers must ensure they have used their service for at least 90 days; subscriber information must be complete and accurate as required; they must not have any outstanding bills or have used international roaming services from the month immediately preceding the registration date; and the subscriber must not be in the process of transferring ownership, violating the law, or under investigation for violations of the Telecommunications Law.

Anyway, embarking on a new adventure is always exciting.
