Transfer Number Vodafone to ??? to Vodafone quickly

mbailey

I am currently on a Vodafone contract which is at the end of contract. I have found a new deal I want, but is on Vodafone network again but through a different shop. The only way to get the deal is for a new contract.

What I propose to do is the follows:

1) Request PAC codes from Vodafone for current numbers. (I actually have these already.)
2) Transfer existing numbers to PAYG. I have Orange and O2 PAYG sim cards to hand I could use. What network would be the quickest?
3) Wait x days. (Not sure how long I need to wait?)
4) Take out new contract with Vodafone with new PAC codes.

To make this a little safer, our current vodafone contracts are in my name, but I propose to put the new contracts in my wifes name.

Can anyone see any holes in my plan? What is the best (quickest) PAYG network to swap to?

Have I got any chance if getting the whole process complete in a couple of weeks, or am I looking at a couple of months?

i was told to do a similar things.

my estimate is 2 - 3 weeks as it takes up to 7 days to go to 1 network and then another 7 ish to come back to voda.
