I have a 100gb plan with O2 which at the moment costs me £19/month. The contract has expired so I can cancel it. I only use 10gb tops, usually it's 3-6gb.
I'm looking to get this plan:
hotukdeals.com/dea…062
Or the one with 20gb which costs £8/month. I have Virgin Broadband so in both contracts the gb's will be doubled via Volt.
My question is, do I buy the Sim first, then cancel the plan and get the text to move the number to the new Sim? Has anyone done it like this before? I need to keep the same number I have now.
Will I be able to move my number this way from an O2 sim to another O2 sim or do I need to maybe use another sim like a Lebara or Giff Gaff first?","comment":[{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51249937","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"devshib"},"datePublished":"2023-10-23T17:29:27.000Z","text":"Just call customer service, and they can change your existing contract to new one.

Choose a SIM only deal - for instance the 20 GB for £8 pm includes Disney + (some of the options don't include an extra, you find out by clicking on the deal).
After clicking the deal, go to checkout then login and upgrade your existing number"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51254974","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"jonnny1"},"datePublished":"2023-10-24T12:52:09.000Z","text":"I selected plan on uSwitch then as you go through it asks you to sign in and bobs your uncle."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51252356","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"HappyShopper"},"datePublished":"2023-10-24T01:01:53.000Z","text":"You should be able to change your contract via the My O2 app."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51269390","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"ChrisAG"},"datePublished":"2023-10-26T12:02:46.000Z","text":"Small update, did everything through the O2 website, I only had to speak to an advisor about my Volt benefits (doubling the data from 30gb to 60gb) as on the website it said that I wasn't eligible.
Thank you guys!"}],"commentCount":12,"interactionStatistic":4,"articleSection":"Ask"}
