Maybe things have changed, or it varies between the networks.
I used to have an O2 contract, changed networks about 3 years ago, didn't bother porting my number.
Just for something to do one day I would guess a year to 18 months later, tried ringing my old O2 number, it rang and someone answered!
I wouldn't say it was anyone from O2 because it was simply answered with "Hello"
My old BT landline number is also in use by someone else too.
