as some of you know, I'm going through a divorce. I posted a while back about my estranged wife running up big bills, and the conclusion was best to cancel her line. Well, her solicitor has raised this and claims I should have left the line running, using some clause whereby I need to keep her a custom to the life she was used to before I slung her out. (For cheating.....) Anyway, they are asking for a pac code for the number. Is this even possible now that I've cancelled it. I wouldn't think it is, but do O2 have some way sorting one out to get her slimming solicitor off my back for a bit?

No chance.
Number will have been recycled by now into the pot for future allocation to new customers.
It's hard enough if the number was cancelled only days ago rather than weeks or even months as in your case.

That's what i thought, just seems mad for them to even make the request. Mind boggles.
