Hi! I'm in Portugal until summer and got a text saying that SIM needed to be upgraded for 5G purposes. Thought we could delay sim migration, wasn't possible so the SIM was posted out to me. In the meantime so I had a phone number abroad, changed to a company with a eSIM. No contract so I have a PAC number from the company and I want to transition back to Virgin, preferably without sending a new SIM our OR losing my number (I'm very scared of this happening and want this sorted ASAP). Any help appreciated!!

Hi megangpb,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the community!

Sorry for any issues faced with this.

For clarification, do you still have an existing SIM with us?

Let us know,

The sim stopped working because the letter was sent on the 28/02/22 and my sim stopped working after 14 days from that day. I've just changed over the sim but haven't thrown the other one away but haven't been prompted to enter any of the details from the new SIM. One possible solution is to "Add Data Plan" under mobile data in my phone but there must be an easier way. I really don't to lose my number!!

Hi @megangpb

Thanks for posting on our community forum

If you have an active deal with ourselves and a PAC number from another provider, I can get this sorted for you.

Brilliant, what information do I need to give you? Do I need to do it privately or on this board?

Thank you so much, this sounds like you can sort it out

Hi @megangpb

My apologies for the inconvenience, to process a PAC switchover we would only be able to do this with the account holder. We would need the account holder to contact us on 789 or 0345 600 0789 and our team will get this sorted
