That is right. If you transfer away from giffgaff any credit/goodybag allowance/payback is lost.

If you want to continue with giffgaff you would have to activate a new SIM under the account your transferred from.

PAC is only needed when you transfer from one network provider to another.

So do you want to keep the same number on another giffgaff SIM? or

Keep one SIM with your current number and another SIM card with a new number?

When you transfer away from giffgaff with a PAC, your giffgaff SIM becomes deactivated.

Any credit etc is lost ... see my earlier reply.

If you want to continue with giffgaff after transfer, you need to start again with a new SIM. But you can activate it under your original account.

tasha0813 Not possible I’m afraid. If you transfer your number away from giffgaff you will find that sim deactivated and any credit, payback wil be lost. To get another giffgaff number just set up and activate a new sim which will generate a random number

Okay, in your case that wouldn't be possible because when you transfer to another provider, the SIM gets deactivated.

You can transfer to another SIM /network and keep that number, however to get a new number with giffgaff, you would need a new SIM card as well.
