Transferring number from different provider

Matthew3242 — Thu, 04 Mar 2021 16:32:51 GMT

Hello I’ve bought a contract with EE and the phone arrived today with a new SIM card but I’ve put that SIM card in but I want to keep the same number from my old network. When I ordered my phone I put the PAC code in and I’m not sure how long I’ve got to wait before the numbers actually transfer. Does it do it automatically? Help would be much appreciated thanks.
