@Sarah5 

It takes 2 working days which doesn't include weekends. 

You will receive a text notification to let you know when but expect Tuesday or Wednesday next week.

Your old SIM will turn off when the transfer starts and it will take a couple of hours for the number to transfer across.

Turn phone off and on to help it along.

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.
Please select the post that helped you best and mark as the solution. This helps other members in resolving their issues faster. Thank you.
