Hi I want to change my contract to a phone from Samsung with a three contract sim. I'm currently om three but they can't match the deal even via an upgrade. If I was to take out the new three contract via Samsung is it possible to transfer my number from my current sim/contract to the new three sim/contract
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @NW you can’t actually move a number between Three contracts I am afraid the only way around this would be to port your number out to another network via a PAC code and then port it back in on to the new sim you receive with the new contract.
hope this helps

No worries NW, yeah that's certainly something that customer services should be able to arrange for you. And it'll save arranging PAC codes both in and out of Three. Let me know if there's any more issues with getting the process completed. 🙂

Hey @benR,
Welcome to the Three Community.
Unfortunately, we're unable to offer a swap from Pay Monthly to Pay As You Go currently. It is something we've been able to do in the past, however, at this time, we're unable to process these requests.
The only way around this would be as previously advised, to port the number to an alternative provider temporarily and port back to Three on a Pay As You Go account.
We're sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks,
Kate
