no idea what I'm doing...changing network to PAYG

tom_and_barbara_good

I want to change my mobile from Fresh to a T Mobile PAYG ( I have the sim already) can someone tell me what happens to my phone number, do I lose it?, can I keep the Fresh contract as a back-up in case I don't make any savings with T mobile or do I have to cancel it before I can use the new sim?

T Mobile should tell you the procedure to go through.

You'll need a Port Authorisation Code(PAC) from Fresh.

Out of interest why are you changing to T-Mobile there normal Payg tariff is expensive!!!!

Is this a big mistake then? I spend around £6.00 a month with Fresh and was hoping to reduce this even more. I've been told that if I put £30.00 on the card the calls are 10 pence per minute, have I got this right?

I have just checked this out - I'm pleased that I did, it has to be usage of £30.00 PM to get the 10 pence per minute ....slap on head moment!

Do you tend to ring mobiles or landlines when you do use the phone.?

It's about half to landlines and the other half is to one t-mobile phone

You could try T-Mobile's "Mates Rates" tarrif at http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/Dispatcher?menuid=orphan_matesrates

All calls to T-Mobile are 5p per min. 20p per min to landlines and 40p per min to other networks. Texts ar 5p each to T-Mobile and 10p each to other networks.

Thanks, I've got on to the Mates Rates tariff, I didn't bother with the PAC code as there are only 4 people (it's not too sad - it's just an emergency phone!) that would phone me so it was easy just to give them my number. A bonus was I was credited with 60 free minutes.

Thanks for the help.
