Starting new plan but keeping number

Otuama34

Hi.

 

I want to get a new phone but keep the costs down as much as possible.

 

Upgrading through Vodafone is so expensive. 

 

So, I'm looking at creating a new plan through Carphone Warehouse.

 

Vodafone upgrade = £59.40/mth

Carphone Warehouse (UPGRADE) = 50/mth

Carphone Warehouse (NEW PLAN) = 43/mth

 

I've been with Vodafone for about 10,000 years I was given an insulting £2 off the upgrade amount.  

 

My question is this:

 

How can I create a new Vodafone plan through Carphone Warehouse and keep my existing number?

 

I've read that I need to:

 

1: Create a cheap PAYG account with another provider

2: Give them a PAC code

3: Get a PAC code from the other provider

4: Create a new plan with Vodafone

5: Give them that PAC code

 

Really, that sounds like so much faffing around.  Surely there's an easier way.

 

Thanks
