Can I switch

Grimr — Tue, 07 Jan 2025 09:02:25 GMT

Hi everyone, I can't seem to find an answer online or here on others posts.

im currently with sky, I've like to pay off my current plan which is near its end and get a new deal, (not upgrade) as if i upgraded I don't seem to get the same deal.
but i also want to keep my number.

so I was wondering if its possible to pay off my current plan, and switch my number to a completely new deal? I dont seem to see an option to do so.

thanks in advance.

@Grimr

You can pay off your current device and to so you would need to call Sky on 150 to do this.

As for a new deal you could try asking Sky at the same time but if they say no the only way around it would be to order a new sim with a new data package, then get a pac code to transfer you current number to a PAYG network then transfer it back to your new Sky sim.

That is correct. Any new dataplan deal has a new phone number.

You cannot transfer numbers within a network.

However, there is a protracted workaround but requires transfer the number out of the network and back in again to the new SIM.
