Disconnecting a switched 8XX

You can disconnect a switched 8XX in Control Center. Disconnecting an 8XX releases your customer from your Lumen billing account, and shuts the 8XX number off in the switch. Other 8XX ordering options in Control Center include self-service tools and online order forms (OLOFs). Using Control Center, you can also add or change a switched 8XX.

To disconnect a switched 8XX:

  1. Click Orders, click Manage Orders, then click Disconnect.
Disconnect Order
  1. From the Service Type list, select 8XX.
  1. From the 8XX Type list, select Switched.
Disconnect Order (showing 8XX and Switched selected)
  1. In the 8XX field, type an 8XX number, then click the Lookup button.

    Control Center fills in the Disconnect Order page with the existing 8XX information.
  1. In the Customer Order ID field, type a unique ID for the order. (A unique order ID is required for each transaction.)
  1. Click Submit Request.

    A message pops up with your order confirmation results. You can correct any errors in the order if you need to and resubmit it.
  1. Take a screenshot or make note of the order confirmation results information. (Clicking OK dismisses the order confirmation information). The results information is not available for later retrieval, but you can look up the 8XX, ANI, or Card on your account in Service Status.
  1. Click OK.
