Pay as you go to sim only

[Tresco]

Can I use U switch to get a better deal and keep my own number if I am a pay as you go O2 customer currently? 

is it easy to do? Never had a contract nor used uswitch before!

@Tresco 

Yes you can.

Choose what you want from USwitch, add to your basket and complete credit checks.

Once accepted, you can migrate your payg number to it Guide: Migration & porting into O2  

O2 will also transfer any balance as a credit to the new contract.

Thank you!

So you wait for a new SIM card and contact O2 afterwards re number - rather than using upgrade button I have seen others mention when enquiring about Uswitch from O2 to O2?

@Tresco 

Upgrades are from a current contract, for a payg change you'll need to apply for a new contract.

[Tresco]

But I can apply for that through U Switch - following the link to the O2 monthly deal I choose?

sorry for all the questions - I’m clearly a novice and appreciate your help.

@Tresco 

Yes, exactly as I said above.
