I have two business SIMs.
One is a temporary number (with a great deal)
One has a work number (on a crap package)
I want to move the work number to the temporary number
How to do this ? I can not see any way and PAC code doesn't work. Nor does the Vodafone online form (there is no option for business to business)
Why does Vodafone make this soooooo hard? If not impossible?

Hi @stinky_bob
Looking back on your previous posting, I notice you recently change a PAYG number to business.
To answer your question and I am sure my reply will be correct. You can't move contract numbers around, you would in effect be changing the terms.
If business is the same process as consumer, you would need to port out the business number to any other network and port back in on the temporary number, this would mean you would lose the temporary number and in the process the business account would be closed leaving you liable for early termination charges.
However, you mention the business number will be replacing a temporary number and it would also depend on how long the business number has to run. The other alternative is to wait until the business contract expires, and then move the number by porting out and back in and take out a new business number with a better deal.
Have a word to the Business Team they will have the necessary account access and will be in a good position to give the best help and advise.

Yes you are spot on - this is the same number I am trying to move!
I had one SIM on 3 that took 5 minutes to move.
This number on Vodafone still can't do it. I have done a change of ownership (as advised by Vodafone) but still can not see how to do it.
I have a total of 3 SIM on my business account, one work, one temp and this one. So I innocently thought I could move this one to the temp. How stupid I was.
How can the Vodafone back end systems be some disjointed and complicated that I have to leave, and then come back. Sigh
