number porting to same network

does anyone have experience with doing this? I am currently with vodafone and awaiting my pac from them, as vodafone seem to be doing the best deals I would like to stay with them and keep my number, how quick and easy is it to port to a payg on another network and back again? retentions offered 1/2 price line rental to stick with them but going through quidco and mobiles 2 your door for cashback deal means i'll actually get paid to have a phone

    As soon as the port is completed get the PAC from the payg network and return with it to Voda. 10/14 days altogether.
  • does it matter which payg network i go to, will it work on all of them, or do any of them have any restrictions on how long you have to be with them before they give you a pac?.

    Doesn't matter which one, sometimes they require you to stay for 28 before they'll give you the pac.

    Technically they all do, but it depends who you get on the other end of the phone, some of the drones can't read date's too well !!
