I'm the same, think the Genie Sim Card deal is £10.00PM = 300 texts and X amount of minutes. Had my number for so long I cant recall the exact details and I never use my phone for calling, just texting.

roughly 7 years, though I nearly lost it last year when I got a new contract with mobiles.co.uk, on O2 (I was currently on O2 at the time), and they spouted some trifle to me that I couldn't keep my number since I was staying with the same provider...
ERRRRMMM eh??
So, once I got my new phone (complete with new sim + new number), I phoned O2, they said "not a prob" and pulled my number from my old SIM. Job done. It's not a special number, but it saves hassle of sending a new number to everyone and learning it myself.

About 4 years. I had to change my phone number back then as someone signed me up to a song download thing and they wouldn't stop texting, £1.50 a message! Ran up a bill of £300!
It would've been 8 if I didn't have to do that.

Used to change mine every time I changed phones, but have had my current number for 6 years.
My first mobile phone, one of the early BT Cellnet PAYG models, had a very cool number, but didn't think twice about saving it at the time.

I've had the same mobile number since 1992. Signed up with Orange in the very early days of thier existance, and have been with them ever since.
My latest one about a year (since getting the iPhone), prior to that i had my old one for at leats 10 years. Only reason i moved to a new number was that the contract on my old number was still going, and i did't want to shell out to finish that off tp pac to my new phone.
On the subject though, i have to say that my kids are the most annoying when it comes to cell phone numbers, my daughter seems to have around 4 sims which she constantly swaps when credit suits.
Why the hell can they not get one card and blody well stick to it !? Means i gotta text all 4 numbers just to get a message across...grrrr
