Transfer my number

Wanna move my number from 1p mobile to EE. But moved my number to 1p mobile on Tuesday. Read on Reddit that this person wrote would he lose his number if 1p mobile goes bust. That got me thinking. So i applied for a sim only with EE, got my SIM card today. So asking when should i put in to get my number moved today or wait till Monday

Do it now! No. will be ported within 1 working day of you activating your EE SIM on EE network.

This depends who the number is allocated to, on Ofcom's database. I'm sure the person posting on Reddit has checked this 😉

And even if it were true, then porting the number out will make no difference.

Hi there @AndyC271

Thanks for coming to the community.

Our Transfer your number to EE page has full details on transferring your number to EE and how long this would take after providing the PAC.

Thanks 🙂

Leanne.
