I did that PAC number thing to transfer his number over. I’ve set up his new phone today but still shows his old number. Does this happen automatically?</P> Wed, 25 Dec 2024 07:41:58 GMT GregM1D 2024-12-25T07:41:58Z https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/SIM-cards-Porting/Change-of-number/m-p/1488757#M51341 <P>I bought my son a new phone for Xmas.

If a PAC was supplied as part of the order, that will be submitted when you first activate the new SIM onto EE's network.<BR /><BR />A port-in date will be set then, usually the following working day. This assumes activation during normal working hours - if during the evening, add an extra working day to these timescales.</P> <P>Neither 25/12 nor 26/12 are working days.</P> Wed, 25 Dec 2024 08:26:01 GMT https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/SIM-cards-Porting/Change-of-number/m-p/1488761#M51342 bristolian 2024-12-25T08:26:01Z
