Considering Plusnet already use the EE network and have the same parent company, why does it take so long to port a number? Currently 20 hours and counting.

Couldn't Plusnet Mobile have just been rebranded EE?

Why isn't it possible for EE to send out a simcard with your ported number already working?

I'm the same, but porting my number from Plusnet to EE (I would have thought that it would be quicker)

20 hours and still waiting for my Plusnet number to be ported.

Surely it's just a simple computer command. Let EE number = ported number
