@SallyD 

As you gave it to them at 8.30pm on Thursday then you missed the 6pm cut off for it to happen on the Friday so as that is the case it will be as if you gave it to Sky on the Friday which means the number will not transfer until Tuesday now as number transfers do not take place at the weekend or a Bank Holiday as per this:

How long does it take?
If you give us your switching code (PAC) before 6pm Monday - Friday, we'll transfer your number to Sky Mobile by 5pm the next working day.

After then, or over weekends, it'll take up to 2 working days or slightly longer if it's a Bank Holiday.

To transfer a number you get a pac code from Vodafone and give it to Sky so did you do this ?
