They'll then try to dissuade you and it's at this point that you tell them about another network's deal to see what they offer, which you can either accept or reject. If you're not sure and want to research it further, tell them you'll think about it and call them back later that day. You can either give notice or ask for a PAC but not both; if you ask for a PAC you must use it within a month otherwise the contract will continue. If you give notice and later ask for a PAC, this cancels the termination notice so don't get caught out: you must use the PAC.
Note that if you do want a PAC, T-Mobile ask for the remaining line rental by credit/debit card there and then i.e. £25. You should then use the PAC ASAP (same day if pos) as this will mean your contract with T-Mobile terminates ASAP and you get the maximum money back from them. (You'll need to check with them as to exactly what happens; I got the credit back onto my account as I have another phone with them.) The amount they want for the PAC reduces on a daily basis; if you don't want to pay for the PAC on principle, you'd have to ask for it on the day after the 12 months is up but then you would end up paying out for another month's rental and waiting for them to refund for the unused part of the month. A PAC normally takes 5 working days to process = 7 calendar days, so you might prefer to ask for it a week before the 12 months is up which minimises the amount you'd have to pay for it and stops them charging you for an extra month. Maybe give yourself a couple of days leeway to be on the safe side. IME, Orange and O2 don't ask for payment when you want a PAC so this might just be a T-Mobile thing.
It is, of course, a lot simpler if you don't want to keep your number! If you've seen a cashback deal with T-Mobile then the PAC is pretty much useless anyway.

Thanks SO Much for that GREAT Advice. I never knew about the PAC Code & 30 Day Notice so that was good reading for me. Cheers
Looks like I'll get a new Numbers (if I take out a NEW Contract)...

You can get a SIM only deal called Simplicity and use that SIM in your D500 provided it has been unlocked from the T-Mobile network.
If you want more details then PM me and let me know.
That goes for anyone else up to 8 people.
Tariffs and details provided at link below.
SIMPLICITY
I can also mayube talk about handsets available dependent on your needs. |
Were "Three" any good? Indian C/S does not appeal to me. But free eBay & MSN is something I liked the sound of
Thanks for the O2 offer, I cant get new Deal untill November 23rd anyways as 18 months ends that day. So I'll see what offers I can get closer to the day. Thanks for the SUPER offer, but 30% off the £25 is still over my Budget sadly lol...

I was very happy with that.

WOW, Sounds like a COOL Offer. Will see what they say when I ring them....
-----------------
Just thought of 2 New Questions
1) Can I Cancel on Phone? or do these Mobile firms want a 30 Day Writen warrning?
2) Could I get my current T-Mobile SimCard switched to a PAYG after the 19 Months? or wont T-Mobile do that? So I keep number incase someone rings it or SMS me. ?
Thanks for all the AWESOME Tips & Advice,
