How long does it take for a new number to be fully activated

RogB1 — Fri, 09 Aug 2024 13:25:24 GMT

started a new phone contract with Sky and ported my number over from my previous provider.

Everything seems to have gone smoothly except for 1 thing.... I cant get calls into my number but I can make calls out.

If I ring my personal phone from my work phone, it goes to O2 voicemail (my old provider) but if I ring out of my personal phone it shows as my ported number.

How long does it take to fully switch over so I can receive calls ?

TIA

Have you received any notification from Sky that the number has transferred over ?
