Three number to 02

[Alanjones]

Iv got a very memorable number on a three sim,iv just used my credit on it now,and want to use a pac code to bring it to my 02 sim.

My question is the 02 sim is on the classic payg tarrif 3p call 2p text 1p mb, and i have a lot of credit on it.

Will i stay on classic payg,and keep my credit when the number transfers?

You saying 02 want to get get people off classic, they keep trying to bribe me by text to move off classic, which tells me they cant just force me off it without me doing it myself

Absolutely correct @Alanjones. You can stay on Classic, until O2 change the rules (again)

Or until they shut down PAYG completely and move everyone to giffgaff........

Like next year when 3g is turned off.

Yes, another option on the cards. 🙄

A mass move of customers to giffgaff seems highly likely. As giffgaff is a wholly-owned subsidiary of O2, credit could likely be moved as well. That would avoid the nightmare scenario for O2 of potentially having to process large numbers of PAC codes and refunds.

If a forced move of the PAYG customer-base to giffgaff is the plan, that would also explain why O2 are still accepting new PAYG customers.

At least we can just bat them off to the giffgaff forum 😂

Or @jonsie, everyone's credit might simply disappear into a black hole ! 😂
