Pac code error

Hello,

 

I have moved to a different country and I would like to change providers but keep my phone number. I am not sure if it will work, but it's worth trying. I am trying to get a PAC code but it keeps giving me an error. Please find the screenshots attached. I tried several times on different days but the error is the same. Please let me know if anyone has any information.

Hi @TinaNone


Welcome to the community.

 

Are you moving to another UK provider?

 

Could you try requesting it on another device please?

 

Chris

Hi,

I am moving to another provider abroad. Is it still possible to keep the number?

Kind regards,
Cristina

I believe a PAC code from EE can only be used to transfer to a UK network provider, @TinaNone.

 

That's not likely to be the reason you're getting the error message on the website, but I don't think a PAC will be any use to you in your situation.

 

Have a chat with our Mobile Care team, they'll run through your options with you.


Chris

Thank you! I'll just get a new number 😞

OK @TinaNone

 

Just to let you know, you'll need to give the Mobile Care team 30 days notice if you want to end your contract with us.

 

Chris

That doesn’t apply to a pay as you go card, surely.

Ah, sorry @TinaNone. I thought I'd read you're on contract, I don't know where I got that from. 

 

No, you don't have to for a pay as you go number. 🙂
