I’m trying to move my vodafone number to idmobile.

The PAC code I have from Vodafone expires on 11 April. Today is the 5 April, but when I enter all

the details into the idmobile app, it says that the expiry date of the PAC is beyond the date when they

can complete the swap. I cant get a different PAC from Vodafone until after 11 April.

Number transfers can’t take place at the weekends, or on a Bank Holiday. 

Because of the approaching Easter break, the earliest day iD would be able to initiate the transfer from Vodafone is 11-Apr-2023.

Can Vodafone clarify if “expires on 11 April” means their PAC must be used to complete the number transfer before this date?

iD Mobile’s number switching timing is:

Hi @Martyn Whitwood 

 

The earliest date for the port at the moment would be 11/04/23 as we’re heading into a bank holiday weekend, thanks @andewhite for the explanation on this.

 

A PAC code would last 30 days, if the day mentioned by Vodafone is the day your port is going over it could be worth checking with them if it’ll last until 11/04/23 23:59 or if it expires as of 11/04/23 00:01.
