I am looking to take out a sim only contract and transfer my number from my current provider. I have seen a comment on this forum that you can’t transfer a number between accounts and just want to check there’s going to be no issue in my case when i start punching in my details. Prior to 2019 I had an account with ID mobile with a different phone number. Since 2019 my current phone number was provided by the new provider and it is this number I would want to PAC to ID mobile if I take out a rolling 1 month only contract with ID mobile.
+18You can’t transfer a number that is currently active on iD to another iD account - this is the standard for most U.K. networks. You can transfer a number to iD that is on any other U.K. network.
+24Hey there
To keep your number, you’d need to upgrade via your account, or complete a triangle port, where you transfer your number to another network on Pay As You Go, then transfer the number back to us via PAC code on your new plan.
Thanks,
Tyler
Hi Tyler
I did have an account with ID mobile in 2018 for phone X phone number1. I am not sure I can even remember what the account details were then. I assumed it ceased when I went onto Phone Y in 2019 with a different provider phone Y with different phone number 2 as I was not paying anything to ID mobile at that point. I have have phone Z same number as phone Y (2) which I will be looking to come to ID mobile with.
Does this not tied into M Zone’s answer in that my current phone and phone number is with another network coming to you?
+25Hi
If your number is currently with another network, you’ll be able to bring it to iD Mobile with a PAC code.
If your number is currently with iD Mobile, it can’t be moved to another iD Mobile account directly.
