Old number

Hi everyone,

I used to have an old UK mobile number which I moved through the years between different networks. I'm not even sure from which network originated.

The number was last in use in 2021 on the EE network. I closed the account and the number in June when I moved abroad.

I'm back in the UK and I would like to obtain once again that number.

Can anyone help me with this because I've read online that's possible.

Thank you for your time in replying me.

Hello @Mike237

 

Welcome to the EE Community. 

 

Sorry, it wouldn't be possible to reactivate a number that has been out of use for 1 year.
