Pay monthly contract but no longer with partner

[Tasha_18]

Hi,

I have recently split from a partner his contract is in my name. His phone is now paid off and its just a rolling sim only deal every month.

if i was to just ask for a pay as you go sim then move his number across to that then i will no longer be linked to his number will i?

That's correct or he can now apply for his own sim only contract now in his name.

Hi @Tasha_18

If he's an ex partner....just cancel his contract as it's in your name

Great thank you, i just wanted to make sure i was no longer linked to that number in anyway

[MI5]

Either way will set you free

[Tasha_18]

Thanks @Cleoriff but He wishes to keep his number hence why i was moving him to pay as you go so that can still be done

[Cleoriff]

@Tasha_18I wouldn't go to the extra effort....I would just cancel as shown above. That way you sever all ties.

However, that's just me

Then you do it your way @Tasha_18. Entirely up to you if you are wishing to be kind and the split was amicable

[Tasha_18]

@Cleoriff Yeah the split has ended ok not sour so just want to make sure the final monthly payment is done then move him onto the pay as you go as long as im free off it i dont mind 😊

There's no need to cancel if you're moving to PAYG.
You just need to call customer service and request the switch to PAYG and they will send out a new sim which will cancel the contract once it's activated.
