PAYG number to contract sim

[Gonzo2]

hi folks,

i have ordered an additional sim card on my account to be used by my mother. she is currently using an EE PAYG. How do I go about getting her current phone number put onto the contract sim? 
I understand if both accounts were held by the same person this wouldn’t be an issue. 

appreciate your help in advance

@Gonzo2 : Instead of ordering a new SIM you needed to do the switch from PAYG or Flex online using Switch to pay monthly and save . Your existing PAYG credit would have been carried over as credit towards your future bills. You would keep your existing SIM & no. The plan on it is just switched to contract.

However now you have ordered a separate SIM, you need to call CS to switch the PAYG no. to your new contract SIM.

Thanks for the quick response

thé problem I’m having is that the PAYG is in my mothers name and I want her added to my account for the discount. The switch to pay monthly would be a contract in her name. 
is there a simple way to do this as I can still cancel the order of the new sim.

Hi @Gonzo2,

Welcome to the EE Community. 🙂

When you receive the new SIM, please get in touch on 150 to transfer the number.

The team will need to run through a security check with your mother to authorise the transfer.

Thanks

James

Yes, you could than call CS with both of you available on the line to effect a change of ownership. If you can't do it together CS will give the current owner a password for you to quote when you call.
