I have a pay as you go sim card that I’ve had for years. I am getting a new sim card with different provider but want to move my existing number to the new sim but keep my older sim card active ( with a different number ) how would this be possible? 
Thank you

You need to get your PAC to port out your number Guide: How to get your PAC [June 2021 Update] 

Then just get a new PAYG sim to keep an active O2 PAYG sim going https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/sim-cards/pay-as-you-go
