Transferring number from sky to sky

[JamieL1503]

I currently have my sim which is with another account from when I was younger. I would like to swap it over to my own account which is also sky. Is there a way for me to transfer my sim to my own account without the agg of transferring to another provider then back to sky again? Hopefully some info out there!

No, there isn't.

Only by transfering out of the network and back in again.

Hi @JamieL1503  unfortunately not. You can't port from sky sim to sky sim (it's the same on other networks). So if you want to keep your number you need to port, using a PAC, to another network on PAYG then port back onto the new sim.

I've just transferred my number from sky to another provider, how long do I have to wait to transfer back to sky? When I request a PAC, from the new provider, it's giving me the same one I used to leave sky originally. Would I use the same one to go back to sky?

Thank you.

If they are giving you the same pac you would need to wait for 31 days before you can get a new pac from them to then give to Sky.
