 | LNP allows residential and business telephone consumers to change telephone service providers or move to new locations within the same local service area and still keep the same telephone numbers. |
| Wireless-to-Wireline LNP A wireless customer may switch their wireless telephone service to a local wireline service provider, and retain their wireless telephone number, as long as the wireline company is providing service in the same local service area as the wireless carrier. |
