I have two phones on my account for my children. My son is old enough to look after his own phone account now. How can I transferer the phone and number onto a new account for him?

@H_L If these are on contract then your son will need to be 18 years old to have an account in his name. To get a change of ownership you need to call customer services to request this with both of you present as he will need to be credit checked,

Be aware that by following the "change of ownership" process, you will lose the ability to share data between your phone and that of your son.

That is a benefit of having multiple lines on the same pay-monthly billing account.
