Hi there,

 

Yes, you can request a future date for your number transfer. However, the dates available will depend on the options presented when your transfer request is being processed.

 

When transferring your number to iD Mobile, the earliest switching date is usually the next working day if your PAC is submitted before the daily cut-off time. If you would prefer to switch later, you'll be able to select from the available transfer dates offered during the process.

 

A few things to keep in mind:

-Number transfers only take place on working days (Monday to Friday, excluding bank holidays).
-Available dates may vary depending on when the PAC is submitted and the networks involved.
-Once your transfer date is confirmed, your existing service will remain active until the switch takes place.
-On the day of transfer, you may experience a short loss of service while the number moves across.

 

If you're arranging the transfer through your iD Mobile account or with our team, we'll be able to confirm which dates are available at the time of the request.

 

Kind regards,
