If i cancel my contract is it possible to keep my number if I take out one of these dolphin 25 deals through mobiles.co.uk etc?
just checked my emails, and mobiles.co.uk say this :
Hello
Further to the despatch of your new contract mobile phone order, you may be interested to know how you can transfer your existing mobile phone number to your new mobile phone.
Transferring your number, known as porting, is only possible when you move from one network to another. If you have a new contract on the same Network it will not be possible to transfer it.
Full details on transferring your number are available at
http://www.mobiles.co.uk/mnp_pac.htm
To start the process of porting your number, please call the customer services team at your existing Network and request a 'PAC Code'. Their numbers are:
- O2 - 100
- Orange - 150
- 3 - 333
- T-Mobile - 150
Then simply call your new network's customer services department and give them this PAC Code. It should only take a few days (networks vary) for your number to go live on your new phone.
Vodafone porting can take 7 days and your SIM card will remain inactive during this time.
