Is wireless number (LNP) porting as easy as it claims to be?

I go to T-Mobile, pick a phone, work out a service plan, and ask them to port my Verizon number.

What I hear is that my new T-mobile phone will be ringing in 3-4 hours on my old number. Verizon will then issue a final bill and send it to me.

Is it really this easy?

Worked that well for me the last time I did it. I don't know about three hours, but quick. I'm doing it again today so we'll see how it works.
