I currently have a Virgin PAYG card. This deal is tempting me.
I think the snawer is no but can I keep my existing virgin PAYG number and transfer it to this contract sim?

No you can't. I was tempted by this deal and went all the way through to the end and ticked the box requesting to keep my same number (which is with Virgin) and got this:

I wish to keep my existing mobile phone number for my Virgin Mob Pay Monthly SIM Card.
Once you receive your new handset simply call your existing supplier and request a PAC code.
You will then be required to relay this information to Virgin Mobile within 30 days of obtaining the code.
Once you have done this your existing number will be transferred within 5-7 working days, this process will also cancel down your old contract.
PLEASE NOTE: You cannot port your number across the same network e.g Orange to Orange. This also applies from the same network pay as you go to the same network pay monthly.

Bit miffed as I have had my same number for 7 years and am too attached to let it go!! Plus its real easy to remember!

i actually think you are incorrect about this,
i have contacted virign about this before and was told that you can trasnfer he number over and also your existing credit moves over too as crdit on your account.
it might be that you do this after you get the new sim card

I was only going by what it said on the e2save website that you couldn't. I might contact Virgin and ask them - if anyone has already ordered the deal and has kept their Virgin PAYG number, I would be grateful to know.

I have had my pay-as you-go virgin sim for about 5 years, I got a new Virgin contract in December, when I spoke to Virgin, I was told that I can keep my PAYG number and transfer it to my contract, but I would lose any credit on my PAYG phone. I haven't done it yet as I still have credit, so can't answer if I was informed correctly.

Hi. I'm currently on VirginPAYG and I'm not sure whether my number can be ported across if I take up this offer.

Can anyone help??

Thanks

E-mail them or give them a call (789) from your mobile.

Hi, I just looked at quidco, and it says it only pays £7.50 for Virgin Sim Only, has that been added since this post started?
and I was thinking of doing the £15 sim for 6 months, then switching to the £10 as I've got BB with them, is there any reason I couldn't do you think?

yes, both the e2save and the phone spot have updated the earnings as £7.50 for virgin sim only. I wonder what happens to those customers who have already purchased and have £36.50 or £50 being shown as tracked.

Well quidco says £36.50 tracked, although I did it on the 29th of April, hope I do get this although I still won't lose out if I do with the cashback.

Incidentally it all seems to good to be true and transparent from the correspondence I have received, I do hope I won't get ripped off!

Can I claim via the insurance for a handset not bought via Virgin?I recieved my insurance paperwork today and I'm not too sure about this.
