Changing number

Is this possible, if you have a new pay&go sim card but you are currently on contract and want to change your number, can you use that number from the new pay&go sim card instead rather then getting a random number from the system?

You need to top up the PAYG sim with £10 then the number is yours to do as you wish with.

Yes, you just need to call CS (202) and ask them to transfer your number.

However, the PAYG sim will be disconnected and you will lose any of the £10 top up you haven't used up.
