    I am trying to do a similiar thing and according to O2 what I have to do is,

    1, 'Downgrade' my existing contract to PAYG (turns out this takes about 10 days!)

    2, Go on to quidco and on to O2 and order the new contract

    3, After I get set up on PAYG, request a PAC code

    4, Contact O2 and transfer my old contract number/new PAYG number to my new simplicity number (I see they actually have an online form to do this (http://service.o2.co.uk/IQ/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE?New,Kb=Companion,T=PreToPost)


    Having said that, I have just tried to order the new sim through quidco (and also TCB) but at the end I get the message that due to O2's home shopping terms I am declined - no idea what that is about but I'll keep trying
