Changing my Mobile Number

[Tyranade]

So my old PAYG phone was a Virgin phone and I would like to transfer that number from Virgin to o2. Now I got this in an email today.

" You want to keep your
old number
You need to ask your old network for a PAC code (they’ll know what it is). Then fill in the form at o2.co.uk/
keepmynumber. It’ll take us one working day to sort it out."

I have the PAC code and I have filled out the keep my number form TWICE and it has been a good few days yet I still do not have my old number. I kind of need to keep my old number otherwise it will be a collosal pain in my backside to give everyone my new number.

As soon as your virgin number loses connection you will know that the porting has started. At that stage put the o2 sim in the phone and switch off/on at regular intervals until the porting is complete.
