Meantime you continue using existing telco as porting over will be done by the two providers. Once they have successfully ported over (they mentioned 1 to 3 days), your current SIM service will die, at this point you insert the new SIM from new Telco provider.

Make sure when you register, with the new Telco, indicate you are porting in your number from current Telco.

Anyway basing on your *if" scenarios, I guess the telco will do something like what banks do when they renew your Credit Card. They will need a SIM card activation first before starting the porting process. So you must receive the SIM card by post first, then install it in your phone and activate the card by keying in certain codes given in a letter that came with the SIM. Then the telco with begin the porting orocess which may take 3 days to 3 months. In the meantime you continue with yoyr old SIM until the porting is DONE. Then you will be informed with a short message.   :

I will switch over to this Telco when my Singtel contract expires. Go and check out this Telco yourself if you want more details.
