Contract End...When to request PAC?

feedtheram · 6 Feb 2012 at 11:37

So my o2 contract ends on the 26th Feb and i am intending on switching to Voda.

My query is around timing of the switch. o2 have said that by using the PAC my contract with them will end...that's not an issue but they also said i was on a 30 day notice period so i don't want to use my PAC on the 24th and then have to pay o2 for a further 30 days which i don't use.

Basically i want to know the best time to take out the new contract and use the PAC to minimise contract crossover.

I pay in advance with o2 so Feb bill is already paid (aside from additional calls to what is included which will be minimal).

I have spoken to o2 however two different advisors gave me conflicting information.

Thanks Myshra

When i sign up to the new contract do i need my pac during the process or do i contact the new network after the new one is setup?

Great thanks for the advice chaps. These things are always such fun!

Odd that it's so easy to upgrade / increase your tarriff online but whenever it comes to cancelling you have to jump through hoops in order to avoid additional charges.

I requested it about 20 days before the end and used it the day before to switch over. Seemed to work fine although the o2 guys i spoke to didn't really give me a straight answer on if requesting the PAC is giving notice.
