Hi
I'm moving to another operator from Ikea family mobile.
I have over £10 credit with Ikea. Can I get my money back?
Thanks in advance

Somewhere in their terms or charges was a reference to a fee for processing a refund, so I assume the answer is yes.
From memory, it might be £5. See if you can find it, and decide whether you think it worthwhile.

No chance. And to be honest it's a daft question, it's like saying if I sell my car privately with some petrol in, do I get the petrol back when I buy a new one?
Why not just run your credit down and then switch number?0 -

As mentioned in some of the links posted, I retrieved mine via https://www.getpoundsback.co.uk.
You get about 60% back but you have to wait about 50 days to get the money.0 -
Just donate it to your favourite charity - you can also add in giftaid.0
