Timeframe to leave Sky mobile before porting back

So ........

As with most companies that dont reward loyalty........if I port my mobile number away from Sky, how long do I have to wait to port the number back to Sky to benefit from their "Brand New Customer" only Sim deals?

Additionally, if Im the main account holder and have 3 Other SIMS, If I leave them in the account just Port one number out presume my piggybank remains active so I can share it with the other SIMS?

Also if I have just bought a phone from Sjy (36month contract) do I have to have an active sim on the account or can I port all my SIMs away?

You can order one of those sims now as you can port the number you have to a PAYG network then back to the new sim.

As long as you have one active sim on your account then your piggybank and the data is safe.

The phone and sim contracts are separate so you do not need an active Sky sim in the phone.

Re: Timeframe to leave Sky mobile before porting back

Thank you so much...............seems odd they dont have a time limit as it just defeats their prices rises other than tieing me in for 12 months when I return but financially and data wise Im better off for the small amount of pain/admin to do it which is nothing like it use to be!

Thanks again
