Porting second number to another provider

[ashchura]

My daughter and I have our numbers under the same VM account which I pay the bill for. My daughter now wishes to have her own account, but also to keep her number and move to O2 instead. I want to keep my number on VM.

I gather that usually she could get a new O2 SIM and port her number using a PAC code, but my concerns are:

1 - Will using a PAC code cancel both numbers and/or my remaining account?
2 - Will the number successfully be in her name after porting? (e.g. my details aren't carried with it)

Many thanks,
Ash

Hi @ashchura,
