Yes, you can! The process of keeping your current phone number when you switch to TalkTalk is called porting. Here’s what you need to do:
- Contact your current provider and ask for your PAC (Porting Authorization Code). Your PAC is a unique code that you’ll need to provide to TalkTalk in order to port your number.
- Sign up for TalkTalk’s service and provide them with your PAC. You’ll also need to provide TalkTalk with some basic information, such as your name and address.
- Wait for the porting process to be completed. This can take up to 10 days, although it’s often completed much faster. During this time, you should continue to use your existing phone service.
- Once the porting process is complete, your phone number will be transferred to TalkTalk. You should now be able to use your TalkTalk service with your existing phone number.
It’s important to note that there may be some situations where you’re unable to port your phone number. For example, if you’re moving to an area where TalkTalk doesn’t offer service, you may need to choose a new phone number. TalkTalk will be able to provide you with more information about this.
