If you have a t-mobile sim card, on pay as you go, then what is the procedure to turn this number into a contract under the same number?

Do you just go to the carphone warehouse ?

and will they still do the 'same' credit check on the person ? asif they were taking out a contract to a brand new number ?

or the credit check will be the same, asif they were taking a new contract ?

    The credit check is for the contract not the number. They want to know if your a real person and live where you say you do and possibly check to see if you can afford it.

    Staying with the same network? If not you need the PAC code to transfer the number elsewhere.
