Hi,
I accidentally sent a porting request to my personal account. I have two numbers linked to my EE account and I accidentally sent a porting request to my personal mobile number.
I contacted EE live chat and they reassured they’d cancelled my request but would like to ask for opinions because I cancelled the PAC code with Vodafone.
Will anything happen now or is everything hunky doorey? Thanks

You'll just have to trust EE that they've cancelled & when Voda try to use the PAC it'll fail.
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

i cancelled the PAC code through the Vodafone website so hopefully nothing happens tomorrow. Either I will get a text saying the port failed due to an invalid PAC or I get no service on Tuesday.
Or as EE said via live chat the porting is reversed and nothing happens to my main number.

Hi @Jank0x,
As you've informed both networks of your mistake, the port shouldn't be completed.

Yeah @James_B nothing should happen because I did double check by calling 150 and a representative informed me nothing was pending and no port request is on my account.
I also haven’t received any texts from EE stating a transfer had started so all should be good.
