Leaving Vodafone

So Vodafone weren't able to offer me a sim only contract that suited me so I asked for my PAC code.

Contract ends on the 8th Feb and I have to use the PAC code by the 9th!!

Is there anyway I can avoid incurring early termination charges? Or minimise the charges? I'm not too worried as I'll be going from paying £30 to £10 per month

Thanks

    Have you got the PAC about a week ago?

    Just use it a few days before the 8th and you'll be just charged for the remaining days. I'd suggest the 5th-6th as the 8th is Sat.

    as the contract ends on the 8th feb, you are already in your last month, so using it any time now will not have any early termination charges.

    Althou using it earlier could mean your phone is cut of earlier so you don't get your full allowance for the month, if you want to maximise that, then use the PAC closer to the 8th. Allow at least a few days for the process to go through
