You have me totally confused, he's joining O2 then he's going to CPW for a new contract, now you want to do a sim swap.

 

You also have a new sim, where did you get that?

 

It's very simple, you hand over the PAC to whoever you take out the contract with at the same time as ordering the contract.

 

I would use a CPW or O2 shop as I don't think you'll get through this without help.

 

They will do it all for you.

Right, now you wait until the old sim goes off, then put the new one in and after a while restart the phone with the new sim in and the number will have been transferred.

It can take 24 hours. Possibly a little longer every now and then. Just keep switching the phone on and off every so often. The old card will eventually stop working and the new one will activate.
