Issues activating a sim as a existing customer
I've just bought a new phone and sim deal. However I already have a sim with sky but it's registered under a family members account. I need to activate my new sim and keep my number.
when I press activate new sim it asks for a PAC code but I don't have one as I'm not changing provider due to already being with sky.
if I press activate replacement sim it just takes me back to my account where I have to start again. Any advice is appreciated

Re: Issues activating a sim as a existing customer
Hi @Lily49 you can't port the number from one sky account to another. The only way to transfer that number is to use the PAC to port the old number to a different network on PAYG then port it back to the new sim.
I AM NOT A SKY EMPLOYEE

Re: Issues activating a sim as a existing customer
You don't need a pac code to activate a Sky sim as you need to enter the code that came with the sim.
