Just after a little advice. I'm looking to get an iPhone 4 on O2 just before or after Christmas, and port my existing T-Mobile number over to them. My T-Mobile contract doesn't expire until January, so I realise that I'll be paying for two services for a few weeks. My question is as follows:
I know that a PAC code is valid for 30 days, but what about the other way round? How long does it take for the O2 number (that my iPhone will have been allocated) to become permanent? Could I, in theory, use the iPhone with its O2 number for two months before porting over my T-Mobile number, or do I have to do it within a certain period of time, say within the first 7 days of the new contract?
Thing is, I'm happy to be stuck with an iPhone 4 on a 2 year contract, but I don't want to be stuck with a random mobile number that I can't change.
Thanks!
