How to Switch from Three to Vodafone

1

Get your PAC code from Three

Text PAC to 65075 from your Three phone. You'll receive your PAC code by text within a minute.

You can also call Three on 333 (or 0333 338 1001 from another phone).

2

Give your PAC to Vodafone

Sign up for a Vodafone plan and give them your PAC code. You can usually do this online at vodafone.co.uk/my-vodafone, in-store, or by phone.

3

Wait 1 working day

Your number will transfer from Three to Vodafone within 1 working day. You'll get a text when the switch is complete. Your old Three contract is automatically cancelled.

Things to Check Before Switching

  • Contract status — Check if you're still in contract with Three. You can switch at any time, but you may need to pay an early termination fee if your minimum term hasn't ended.
  • Outstanding balance — If you're paying off a handset, you'll need to settle any remaining balance with Three.
  • Phone compatibility — Make sure your phone is unlocked and compatible with Vodafone's network. Most phones sold since 2015 are unlocked.
  • Coverage — Check Vodafone coverage in your area before you switch.

Different Network Coverage

Three uses the Three network while Vodafone uses Vodafone. Coverage may differ in your area — check coverage before switching.
