Hi, I have been trying different providers for coverage in my area before going on contract.

It is down to 02 or Voda'. So far I have not seen many decent offers for my needs on 02.

Want half decent phone but I do not use much data and most offers favour big users.

So question is if I leave 02 for voda' do I need to do anything to cancel, I am on PAYG ?

Thanks

I am now confused confused

I clicked the leaving 02 link then folllowed the update which gave me

'Text PAC' to 65075

I entered this into my mobile and it was recognised as an EE number, my previous provider.

Now is this a generic switching service or has something gone awry ?

Cheers

@Theshed 

It's a generic service that works for all UK networks.

O2 will text you back your PAC which will start with the letters "TEL" followed by some numbers.

Bit of a random question, but would you recommend the 'OnePlus 6' ?

Yes I would recommend 100%
It's a brilliant phone for the money.
