My elderly dad has a paygo account with 02. I have a pay monthly account with O2. He needs wifi calling and can't get this with paygo and is reluctant because of the cost of a contract. He is missing calls from family and friends as the signal is poor in his house and I'm worried about his safety.  I want to pay for this for his Christmas present and have found a suitable SIM only contract for him. It is essential that he is able to keep the same number. I would like to buy a paymonthly SIm, so keep his old phone and his current number. As he is 87 I would prefer to add him to my account as he would struggle to do the tech necessary to manage his own account and I want it to be stress free for him. Is it possible to migrate his old number to a new Sim on my account?

Yes, just contact O2 for a number migration.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
