Getting a PAC out of orange.
I'm sorting out my mum's phone upgrade for her, we're moving away from Orange, and going to Voda. She'd like to keep her number. Someone I spoke to at orange eariler claims they cant give out the PAC over the phone, as its illegal, and i'd have to get it in the post.
3 did this for me instantly last year.. Are they right? We're out of contract, it'd just be easy to get the PAC texted to us. |

For some reason Orange like to issue their PACs by post (this will have to stop from April 2011 when new rules come into force). I had real trouble trying to get a PAC out of them when I wanted to leave. Took me about a month in all, with me having to call many times to chase them up on my request.
I was told that the PAC had been requested and would arrive within a week. Waited a week - nothing - so called back and was then told they had nothing on record. I was annoyed, but willing to give them another chance. The same thing happened again, and I was lied to on several occasions. I was really quite fed up by the end of it. Anyway, I hope you don't have the same problems!

They can provide you with a PAC code within about 30 seconds over the phone if they wanted to. But they want to make life as difficult for you as possible so you cant leave them.
