Hello

 

I wonder if you can advise at all? How do I go about changing a phone to another name? I have two numbers associated to me and I need to change one to my husbands name.

 

Is there a way I can do this?

 

Thanks

Denise

A change of name can only be done when the contract has run its minimum term and a new contract is taken out by the person requiring it in their name.

The number can be them migrated to the new contract.

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.

This can't be done. You would have to close one account and your husband take one out in his name.

You can't change the name on a contract unlesss it's by marriage or it's been changed via deed poll.

You can change the bank details so it comes out of his bank.

He would have to apply for a contract in his own name.
