    Generally, yes. Although the process does depend on what network you're moving to, and it may not be possible with some retailers.
  • Thanks for the rapid response.

    Dialaphone told me no it is not possible online.

    Which e-tailer is the best to use ?

    Dial-a-phone supports porting to T-Mobile, Orange, Three, O2 and T-Mobile, but not Vodafone.

    Phones4U (and thus mobiles2yourdoor) also doesn't support porting to Vodafone.

    You can port to Vodafone if you give your PAC at point of sale through their online store.
  • Hi ya

    It is a Vodafone PAC number, so i understand their response better.

  • Is the standards body trying to make the whole process the same among all the networks?
