@frankjg
Hi, could I ask the reason you want to leave giffgaff?

Is your giffgaff sim working?
What do you hear when you call 43431 to request the pac code?

@frankjg

Leaving giffgaff:

Turn off recurring goodybag and auto topups, and remove all payment methods [link]

Taking your number with you:

Dial 43431 or go to http://giffgaff.com/help/pac-code-request to request a PAC (Porting Authorisation Code)

The PAC will be delivered by SMS within 2 hours and displayed on your My giffgaff [link] page, under your number.

The transfer must be initiated within 30 days of requesting the PAC, otherwise it will expire and you will need to request another. Please be aware that mobile networks are not obliged to provide a PAC once your account with them has been terminated.

The moment you port your number away your giffgaff SIM card will be deactivated and you will permanently lose any remaining credit, goodybag and/or payback on your account.

You cannot request a PAC if:

• You have reported your SIM lost/stolen and have not activated the replacement;
• Your SIM has been suspended for any reason;
• Your SIM has been deactivated/terminated;
• You have already requested a PAC within the last 30 days
• You are logged into an inactive account (i.e. the wrong account)

You can request a pac by calling 43431 and following the prompts. You will receive the pac over the phone and it will come up on your main account page. The pac is only valid for 30 days.
