Can you change numbers at any time on a new contract?
After always being PAYG I took a contract. Had the new phone + SIM for a month or so without using yet as I've had some credit to use up. Can I use the new SIM with its own number for a while before requesting to swap to my existing number, or should I do that straightaway? Or have I already left it too late?! Thanks

I tested this myself via ordering…

Sky Mobile Con
Did anybody else know if you leave sky mobile and they give you a PAK code but then you don't use that; they keep your account open and keep charging you each month? Should we be expected to know this? Is it just me but they always seem to be trying to con you out of money by devious methods or small print that was never…
