After waiting 3 weeks for my number to port from O2 to ee, it was scheduled to be before 6pm today, i now have people calling me using my old number getting sent straight to voicemail , which i dont get notified of. Any calls or texts i send come up as the ee phone number. i need to be able to use my old number. The O2 sim card is now dead but its like half the job has been done. HELP!!!!! Changing broadband has also been a pain, beginning to wish i just took the hit on price and stayed where i was.

Thanks for your help. I spoke to very lovely lady from ee this morning, turns out they had ported the number to the other of the 2 sims they had sent me, which was still in its packaging. I had done the normal thing and used the primary sim. Swapped sims, turned phone off and on again, happy days.

- when will my mobile phone number port to the new sim? in SIM cards & Porting
- New sim - porting number in SIM cards & Porting
- Snapchat in Mobile Data
- moved to EE from O2 but message to some shows the O2 number not my ported EE one in SIM cards & Porting
- I want port my sim Lyca to ee in SIM cards & Porting
