    If you took a pac code you can't technically give them 30 days notice as the pac code expires 30 days after you request it.

    So if you used the pac code you would have left EE before the 30 days notice is up which is why you would have a port out termination fee

    For all contracts the notice period is 30 days.
    The fee is the cost of the next 30 days after giving a notice or getting a PAC. A part of this amount usually has been already paid in advance.
