PAC codes for phones. How long does it all take??

I’ve finally taken the leap and left Three! My new phone was supposed to be delivered today but won’t be here until tomorrow afternoon.

I’ve got a PAC code but how do I go about transferring my number and his long does it all take? I’m going on holiday on Friday so will be out of the UK. Can it all be done before then?

When I switched to Smarty I simply copied and pasted the PAC code into the joining page on the app. Took a few more hours and it was completely switched over!

Not sure about other providers. Good luck! 👍

I've just transferred mine. They usually say within 24 hours but weekends don't count. I put my code in on Saturday so it didn't transfer until Tuesday.

When DS switched to Smartie this summer it took 2 days.

Oh heck. It won’t be delivered until after 2pm tomorrow and we fly at midday on Friday. Not sure what to do now.

Well I managed to get it all sorted by just after midday today so keeping everything crossed now that the number transfers over in the shortest window that they quoted. 🤞🏻🤞🏻
