Hi. You can port a number in at any time. and it is generally useful to check out a new supplier for a few days at least before porting your number.
Pretty much any supplier will have a webpage on 'bringing your number to us'
Just out of interest who are you thinking of going for?1 -
Lebara is a very popular choice right now;

Check out options for buying a handset and sim together or separately. And if you go for a combined deal check whether it is subject to an annual price rise.1 -

best deal I can see for what I want is Vodafone (despite the spelling, which hurts my brain)

And at the risk of sounding like an apologist for your current network. "I have lost my phone and need to transfer my number" is quite a common form of identity fraud these days, so they have to be careful.2

yeah, of course, fully appreciated. There's a difference between being careful and being @rses though
