Can I change my Pre-Paid service to post-paid and vice versa?
Take me to
Yes, you can change your mobile from Pre-Paid to post-paid or post-paid to Pre-Paid. When changing to Pre-Paid you can keep your number, but you'll need a new SIM card. To make the switch:
How to switch my service
First, you’ll need to select a post-paid plan and, if required, a new device. In most cases we can add your mobile to an existing account.
First, you'll need to select a Pre-Paid plan, order a new SIM and activate your SIM once it arrives. Then you can choose a recharge amount and recharge your Pre-Paid online using your credit card, debit card, PayPal or a recharge voucher.
Note: Any discounts or benefits linked to your post-paid contract will end once your service changes.
If you're still on a post-paid contract, you can still switch to Pre-Paid but you'll need to pay any early termination charges and any remaining device or accessory payments associated with your plan.
