My number hasn’t been used since September 2023. Is it still active ?

I have been overseas and haven’t used my mobile number since 2023. Is it still active and available to use? Thank you

@Clairee55   No and you can not get it back,    It has to be used to be kept.  After 9 months of no use and you not requesting to have it reactive after 3 months of no use it’s gone for good.

You've not said whether your number was on a pay-monthly contract or PAYG.

I very much doubt it, but if you're on pay-monthly contract and have maintained your monthly payments, then your line will remain active indefinitely.

For PAYG, refer to the previous response.
