I am a Sky VIP. I upgraded to an offer for Sky VIPs. I have received my SIM card. Do I need a PAC code?

@Lorna172 No you cannot transfer number between a single network if you want to keep your existing number you would have to transfer it out to another payg provider then back again to the new sky sim

No as you just start using your new sim with the new number as you can not use a pac code to move a number between two Sky sims.

The only way around this is to get a pac and move the number to a PAYG network then back again to this new Sky sim.
