Can I change my starting day with ID mobile?

Two days ago, I requested my starting date with ID to start tomorrow but my old company already charged me two days earlier than usual. So is it possible to change it for the 18th of December? If yes, do I need to request another PAC to my old company?

Hi ​@Maria Silva 

 

We’re really sorry to hear about the issues you’re experiencing with your number transfer. Please note that we aren’t able to change the order’s start date, so this will remain as the date your order was accepted. However, we can adjust the date that your number actually transfers over, if needed.

 

Regards,

So ID will only charge when the number is transferred to yourselves is that correct? If so Can be the 18/12/25?

Hi. I I've provided the PAC number and I wanted to keep my old number can you please let me know if I will be able to keep my old number because I was given a new one? The transfer date for your services was today and I would like my old number to be available for me today.

 

Thank you for the support.

Hi ​@Maria Silva 

 

Please note if your number was due to switch today you will not be able to stop the switch from happening. If you were due to switch from tomorrow, you still have the option to cancel the switch and request for a later date.

Hi. The transfer was today and I'm ok with that. How long does it take to receive my SIM card?

What do I need to do to keep my old phone number?

 

Thank you

Hi again. I've received a message stating that I'll receive the SIM card tomorrow. I only need to know how can I keep my old phone number?
