To keep your number, request a PAC code from Lebara and give it to EcoTalk.
You can usually give EcoTalk your PAC code when you order, or after your new SIM card or eSIM has been activated.
1. Request a PAC code from Lebara
Here is how to get your PAC (Porting Authorisation Code) from Lebara:
- Text: Text "PAC" to 65075 from your Lebara phone. You will get a text back with your code within a minute. This is a free service from Ofcom (the UK's communications regulator).
- Online: Request a PAC code via the Request to leave form on Lebara's website.
- Phone: Call Lebara on 5588 from your Lebara phone or 0207 031 0791 from any other phone.
Any unused pay as you go credit on your Lebara account is lost when your number transfers and cannot be recovered. Use it up before requesting your PAC code.
2. Order a SIM only deal from EcoTalk
If you have not ordered yet, compare current EcoTalk SIM only deals below.

If you already have your new SIM, continue to Step 3.
If EcoTalk asks for your PAC code during checkout, enter it there. If not, wait for your new SIM or eSIM to activate, then give EcoTalk the PAC code using the method below.
EcoTalk plans are rolling monthly and the network puts profits into nature restoration projects.
EcoTalk does not run a credit check, so there is nothing to wait for during sign-up.
3. Give the PAC code to EcoTalk
Once you have your PAC code, here is how to give it to EcoTalk:
- At checkout: Enter your PAC code when you order your EcoTalk SIM.
- Phone: If you have already ordered, call EcoTalk on 033 3800 5500 and give them your PAC code.
4. Wait for your number transfer to EcoTalk to complete
EcoTalk will send the transfer request to Lebara.
Your number should move to your new EcoTalk SIM within 1 to 2 working days.
