Porting number to new person
Options
Currently I have a sim only out of contract with Sky. The number has actually been used by my father for years although in my name. for various reasons the contract needs to now be in his name & moved from Sky ( Last part only because of leaving Sky tv & losing the discount ) .
So before I go & really mess this up can I go to SKY for my PAC code then give it to my father for him to move it to Smarty in his name ?

Yes, you can do that. Sky may try to retain you, asking what you're planning to move to etc, but just don't enter into any discussion. The Sky service will be terminated when the PAC is used.Evolution, not revolution0

I successfully ported a Three number in my name using a Pac to a new Vodafone contract my SD took out. I'd guess the PAC is linked to the number only and not any particular person0
