What you need to do

Keeping your mobile number or getting a new one

Want to take your current mobile number to a different network? Ask us for a PAC or STAC code. You’ll need to give this code to your new network provider to complete your switch. Please be aware that by generating the PAC or STAC code you could incur an earlier termination fee.

PAC code:
• Cancel your contract
• Keep your current mobile number and transfer it to your new network provider.

STAC code:
• Cancel your contract
• You do not want to keep your current mobile number – your new network provider will give you one.

Leaving us for another mobile network might affect any other O2 services you’re using.

My O2

If you use your PAC or STAC code, you will lose service and data on the device connected to your MyO2 account at the end of your billing period. To keep using your device, please re-register your device in the MyO2 app.

Please note: Once you re-register, all of your data will be deleted and you’ll need to set up your device as new – this will include a credit check.

O2 Priority

If you are using any perks through O2 Priority, these will also be cancelled.

We’re sorry you’re leaving us. You’ll need to notify us that you want to cancel your account if you haven’t already done so.

You’ll continue to be billed up to your disconnection date and your final bill could be a combination of the below:

1. Line rental for the portion of the month you used your device before your disconnection date
2. Out-of-plan usage
3. Any Extras (such as a recurring Data Extra)
4. Early exit fees

The 22-day rule

If you switch to another network at least 22 days before your normal billing date that month, you’ll get your final bill on your normal billing date.

If you switch to another network any later, you’ll get your final bill 22 days after you switch.

We bill your usage retrospectively, so if you’ve recently been abroad, it could take up to two months for roaming charges to be billed after you’ve disconnected.

Please don’t cancel your Direct Debit. Once your mobile number is disconnected we won’t continue to charge you, but we need a direct debit in place to take any final payments when they’re due.

You can continue to check your bills up to six months after you’ve cancelled. Please set up an alternative contact number in MyO2 to do so.
