Changing from PAYG to contract

I have tried using the link previously posted to look into changing from PAYG to contract but the link does not work.

I have also messaged SWITCH to 150 to get a discount code, as per the app stated to do, but this does not work either.

How do I change from PAYG to a contract without having to phone, as I don't have time to be on hold for ages.

Follow How Do I Upgrade from Pay As You Go? to switch from PAYG to contract. Your existing PAYG credit will be carried over as credit towards your future bills. You keep your existing SIM & no. The plan on it is just switched to contract.

Hi @Fizzwigady 

Welcome to the community.

Could you try the link on another device or browser please? What message did you get back when you texted SWITCH to 150?
