I've recently transferred my T-mobile PAYG number to orange PAYG SIM using my original number PAC code from T-mobile. But the reception is terrible and wish to change back to T-mobile immediately the following day.

I phoned orange and asked for the PAC code of this number but the customer representative said i need to be using the number for at least 3 months before getting the PAC code from orange network. Is this correct? i have to wait three months to get my PAC code from orange?

Please help!

    But Orange and T-Mobile have the same masts and can share each other's services. Find out how to set your phone to hop from one to the other and your service should improve.

    (They are now both part of the same company.)

    Yep - as GD says - this is not the same outfit, and will shortly rebrant with T-Mobile and Orange's name being condinged to history, and a new name for the two merged enterprises (currently Everything Everywhere). As users of both networks can access each others cellsites, you just have to ensure you have roaming enabled, and you;ll be in the same position you were previously.
