Porting number - Contract to PAYG

Is it possible to port a number from a contract to a PAYG?
I'm currently with t-mobile, my contracts up and I wanted to change to PAYG, but I just spoke to t-mobile and they told me they no longer do PAYG.
So is there any company that I can transfer my contract number to on a PAYG deal?

    that's strange as their website is offering payg but yes you can port from contract to payg on the same or another network

    Well, they wouldn't change my contract number to PAYG, and said they no longer did PAYG - sales team lying me thinks.
    I got my PAC code anyway - so just contact orange and see what they say?

    Cheers guys - what network do Asda use?
    I should have said previously but where I live I only get a signal for T-mobile and Orange.

    It looks like Ikea mobile mobile uses T-mobile infrastructure, not as cheap as Asda but reasonable. I'll do a bit more research to confirm.
    £3 extra credit with ikea code FMS2 if anyones interested.
