PAC code problem with TMobile
Last month I gave 30 days notice to TMobile as my contract is due to end in a few days. Today I rang them to get a PAC code to transfer my number to my new provider.

It ain't the provider's fault, but the 'internal' antenna of the mobile phone. I am a Home Carer, and need to be able to be…
