30 Day notice/pac code.

I gave the required 30 day notice to leave 3, cancelling my contract and requested a pac code. As of today I dont need to port my number and rang 3 to inform them (contract end date 23rd August). I have been told by India that I have to give a fresh 30 day notice!!
Is this true or was my origional notice 30 day notice good enough?

    yes '3' do have this strange thing that I have not seen with any other operator. You give the 30 days notice and get the PAC. If you use the PAC all well and good. If you don't the contract continues. So if you're not going to use the PAC you naturally call them to change to cancel totally. Ah, but now they ask for another 30 days. Very bizzare and it's not even an administrative issue as PACs can be cancelled off the system easily.
