[Gllug] OT: number porting between the same network

[Karanbir Singh]

I have a pay monthly contracted Vodafone price plan at the moment.

CarphoneWarehouse have a deal that I want, also on the vodafone network.

Now my question is, can I take a PAC code from Vodafone and give it to
CarphoneWarehouse/Vodafone to retain my number as I move to the new deal
? Carphone warehouse seems to say yes, Vodafone seems to say No.

Vodafone's reasoning seems to be : need to switch networks in order to
use a PAC and retain number.

Now, who knows enough about whats going on here ? And should I or should
I not save £250 a year by moving to the new deal from Carphone
Warehouse... for exactly the same phone and price plan, but with a bunch
of half price line rental for a few months.

I know some of you have seen this issue raised elsewhere (!grin!), but i
need to get this resolved by Tuesday sometime....
