Hi All
I wonder if anyone can help me with this. My Vodafone contract is almost expired.
Vodafone were unable to give anything close the same deal for the next 12 months, so much for rewarding loyalty(!)
I have a PAC code from them.
However they are doing a good SIM only 12 month contract if you go via Quidco you get £150 cashback.
My plan was to move my number to O2 onto a SIMplicitiy 1 month tariff and then after a couple of weeks requesting a PAC code from O2.
Then using the O2 PAC code move my number back to Vodafone.
Of course this all depends on Quidco paying out, however if it doesn’t the monthly cost is just what Vodafone offered me for renewal anyway.
But I’m unsure if I can move my number form Vodafone to O2 and back again to Vodafone within 1 month.
Does anyone know of any such restrictions?
Thanks in advance.

So take 2 months then to be sure.
Oh, and I eventually got my Quidco payment from the sim-only deal with Voda. Received it last week although I get the sim in November/December last year.0 -
The Orange rep stated on here a while ago that you could port into Orange in the morning and request your pac in the afternoon. That might be your fastest way of going in case the offer on Quidco ends. . .0
