Porting Number

[matt1234]

Hello everyone, I have just purchased an upgrade via buymobiles.net. I am staying with O2, however I want to port my existing O2 number to my new SIM and contract.  I have found information about PAC codes however this all seems to relate to leaving another network, I'm staying the same just want to keep my number on a new sim, please tell me this is possible?

Thanks

You just need to ask O2 to migrate your number.

No PAC required.

Thank you @MI5 the thought of having a new number was terrifying!

Just for clarity.....

You used the term "upgrade" so if it really was an upgrade to your existing contract, your number will automatically transfer across. But, if it is a new contract resulting in you now having two contracts, you need to migrate as above.

Thanks @MI5 i went through the upgrade section on Buymobiles.net (AO), i had to put the number in i wanted to transfer, so hopefully it will update automatically

Lastly will my old contact cancel automatically when i get the new one?

If you are UPGRADING, the new contract will take the place of your old one.

Hope that helps.

Your old contract naturally becomes the new one with an upgrade, so nothing for you to do.
