Switching to eve but keeping phone number

Hi there! 
I’m switching from Tesco mobile to EE I’ve waited 24 hours to receive my PAC code. 
I am aware I need to ring EE and give my code to them to keep my old number. How long does it take for the number to go on to my new sim?

Hi @Elisestephenss 

It should take 24/48 hours but currently it may take longer because of Christmas. 

Thanks
