    So thanks for finding this (better) tariff. Its not yet on the comparison sites that i've been looking at.
    I know it may be too late for you but IMHO a better bet is the Nokia 3120 on the 200 minutes deal from Mobileshop. 12 months free line rental and 200 minutes any network any time.

    50 minutes less but the handset is a tri-band model whereas the 6030 is just dual band. Depends if you ever go to the States or South America I guess.

    Mobileshop are doing the Nokia 6030 on o2 - 250mins, it's a better phone and you get 50 more mins than the one mentioned above.
    have a look at it here, but buy it through Quidco or Rpoints and get more cashback

    My wife needs a new phone and has a PAC number. Can she get one of these deals and still keep her old number?
  • Yes, but only if she's switching from one network to another, there are offers with 12 months free via cash back on most networks. If your wife has her PAC she can proceed with her order online, entering the PAC number and existing mobile phone number where indicated on the web site order form. I highly recommend Mobileshop for cash back, I've heard many complaints about other sites but none about Mobileshop, they're definitely one of the best.

    Mobileshop charge £10 to do the transfer for you. When you go through the ordering process there is a box that you can tick if you wish them to do so.

    Having read a previous post on this subject, I rang O2 who state that they will transfer the number for you, as long as you do it within 28 days of getting the phone. The transfer takes 7-9 days during which time you will have a tempory number. The PAC code you have has to remain valid for this period. If it expires you will have to get your current provider to supply another one.

    I'm going the O2 route and will report how it goes.

    I have done this via mobileshop,but there is a £10 charge for the service,I think it is charged by 02.

    Not that I've done it yet but O2 tell me they will transfer free of charge - best check to be on the safe side.

    Have been down this route.

    Mobileshop will set this up for you for £10, which may suit some folk as it takes any hassle out of the process. This is Mobileshop's charge not O2.

    If you accept the supplied number from Mobileshop and arrange the PAC yourself directly with O2, it is free.

    The result is the same. In about five working days the supplied number will cease to work and your old number will be available on the new phone.
