Two Contracts, Same Name - Number Change? Swap SIMS?

Hello,

Hoping someone will be able to help me.

I have a contracted phone with vodafone and want to take out a second contracted phone with vodafone.

I'm assuming I can swap the sim cards between two phones without any issues? Because they are both with vodafone so won't be locked correct?

Secondly, when the first contract comes to an end, can I move that number across to the other contract? This would approx. 8 months after the other contract has been taken out.

Thanks!

Hi @LDHArv 

 

Providing the new phone takes the same size SIM you can continue to use the same SIM but you will still be paying for two contracts for 8 months.

 

The way to move the number to the new contract will be the same process when purchasing through a third party, the quickest way to get this done is to port the number you wish to keep to any other network and back in on the new contract at the same time this will cancel the previous contract when the number moves.

 

Should the new phone need a replacement SIM see here: Replacement SIM cards
