Can I wait a few months to port my number to EE?

Hi there

I have a contract with another mobile provider that runs out in a couple of months. As the signal is so bad where I live, I would like to get a new SIM only contract with EE and use the SIM in my dual sim phone for a couple of months while my contact runs out with the other network.

Can I use a PAC to port my old number to my EE account after a few months? Or do this need to be done from the start of the contract?

@congo181  You can do it after the other network contract has finished.

You can port-in to EE at any time.

Great. Thanks both. Just to clarify, so I would essentially take a new number from EE with my SIM, and then after a couple of months can then get the PAC code from my old operator and convert the new EE phone number to my old network number?

Exactly!
