PAC code. How long for a temporary number to switch?

Ian-Hartpury — Mon, 28 Nov 2022 16:52:57 GMT

Hi, I bought a sim card from O2, giving O2 a PAC code from Vodafone when I placed the order. The sim was first used on Friday 25.11.22 on the temporary number. When should I expect the number to switch to my old Vodafone number?

@Ian-Hartpury O2 doesn't port numbers on the weekend. It's most likely that your number will port tomorrow.

If you're still having issues, you can reach O2 via social media:
Facebook (https://o2uk.co/O2CFB), Twitter (https://o2uk.co/O2CTW), or Instagram (https://o2uk.co/O2CIG)

You should get a text (I think to the o2 number) advising when the port will happen @Ian-Hartpury

If you have not had that then you might need to submit the PAC again.

See some help in the guide below:

Hi @Ian-Hartpury did you get a text about your port?

Thanks everyone. Number has now ported across. A bit of a shame it took from 11am Friday until 12 noon on Tuesday, but it's done now.

@Ian-Hartpury

Tuesday is the first available day for a PAC submission on a Friday.
