When best to use PAC code?

[chris.tarry85]

Not done this for a long time so am a little confused.

Would my notice period have started when I requested the PAC code? If so I presume it is then best to wait around three weeks before using it and activating my new sim to reduce the time I am paying for but not using the old one?

Or does the notice period only start when I use the code?

Network is 3 btw if that makes a difference?

There is no notice period with a PAC, when you use it your number transfers next working day. If you still have time left on your contract, you'll be charged for the remaining days of your minimum term.

Thanks, so your notice period starts from when you use the code? Rather than when you request it?
