You can get your own SIM but the no. belongs to your ex. So unless you can persuade her to do a change of ownership to you, you can't take it with you.

If you think I helped please feel free to hit the "Thumbs Up" button below.

To phone EE CS: Dial Freephone +44 800 079 8586 - Option 1 for Mobile Phone & Mobile Broadband or Option 2 for Home Broadband & Home Phone

ISPs: 1999: Freeserve 48K Dial-Up > 2005: Wanadoo 1 Meg BB > 2007: Orange 2 Meg BB > 2008: Orange 8 Meg LLU > 2010: Orange 16 Meg LLU > 2011: Orange 20 Meg WBC > 2014: EE 20 Meg WBC > 2020: EE 40 Meg FTTC > 2022:EE 80 Meg FTTC SoGEA > 2025 EE 150 Meg FTTP

To add, if "your" phone is in your ex's name, then legally - it's not "your" phone, it's your ex's.

It is upto your ex what happens to it until & unless they agree to perform a legal change of ownership and it is transferred into your name.
