    This sounds like a business SIM contract, so any compensation would be in line with the contract terms.  What do they say about this sort of situation?

    Check the following process and see if it shows on your smarty dashboard

    Yes, you can transfer your mobile number from Three to Smarty. To do so, you'll need to request a PAC (Porting Authorisation Code) from Three and then provide it to Smarty. 
    Here's how to do it: 
    1. Get your PAC from Three: Text "PAC" to 65075 from your Three SIM card.
    2. Sign in to your Smarty dashboard: You can do this at smarty.co.uk/dashboard or in the SMARTY app.
    3. Enter your number and PAC: Navigate to "Account Settings", then "Your phone number", and follow the prompts to enter your number and PAC.
    4. Confirm and switch: Review the details and agree to switch your number to Smarty.
    5. Wait for confirmation: The transfer should be completed within one working day.

    PAC number transfers don't happen at weekends. If you submitted a transfer request on Friday then It'll likely happen today.
