Hi.

I've recently upgraded my virgin media which includes a sim only deal which has now been transferred to o2. I've recently received my o2 SIM and tried to transfer my old virgin number to o2 with the PAC code provided. After being on the phone with o2 for sometime they couldn't get this over the line and stated the request kept being rejected. Not sure what I can do? I use my old number for business purposes.

I'd start by checking your PAC is correct.

You can text for it to check Guide: How to get your PAC [June 2021 Update] 

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.

Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)

Speak to Virgin Mobile, as sometimes they won't release the number until the old package has been completely switched.

- Xperia 1V - o2 and Spusu
- Pixel 8 Pro - o2 and Vodafone UK
