    Your number will port 5 working days after you give O2 the pac. Orange will bill you to your contract end.
    Its not a good idea to start the process if your out of the UK, the sim updates that change the number may not get to you (I've no idea what might happen then !!).

    10 days is more than enough, you should have no problems.

    Depends on network, if you work on 5 days your safe.
