Sims Swapping

Alright so in short, I have got two SIM contracts. Initially got a contract from EE, hasn't been much days to it but as per them since I got it from store, there's no cool off period and so the SIM/contract can't be returned.

I also got a new vodafone contract with a phone which obviously came with it's own number and SIM. 

What I am want is to actually swap the numbers. I need that old EE number on this new vodafone SIM and this vodafone number can goto my EE sim considering the fact that I've already used the old EE number almost everywhere for my contacts and accounts. 

Would appreciate if I can get any help.

That won't be possible @dawoodsahi and I will give you the reasons.

The EE number is committed and tied into the contract, if you wanted to move the number to the Vodafone contract, it would mean requesting a PAC from EE to enable you to move the number and as soon as you used the PAC it would terminate the contract, generate the final bill and leave you liable for all the EE  early termination charges. As the number would override the new Vodafone number, you would lose that number in the process.

There is no option to keep both numbers, and paying early termination charges to EE would work out very expensive.
