How to Get a PAC Code from Asda Mobile
Quick Answer
Text PAC to 65075 from your Asda Mobile phone. You will receive your 9-character PAC code by SMS within 60 seconds. Give it to your new provider and your number transfers within 1 working day.
3 Ways to Get Your PAC Code from Asda Mobile
Asda Mobile must provide your PAC code free of charge under Ofcom regulations. Here are the ways to get it, ranked by speed:
1. Text PAC to 65075 (Fastest — 60 Seconds)
Send a text message with the word PAC to 65075 from your Asda Mobile mobile. Asda Mobile must reply within 60 seconds with your 9-character PAC code and any early termination charges that apply. This method is mandated by Ofcom and works on every UK network. Asda Mobile runs on the Vodafone network, but you still request your PAC directly from Asda Mobile — not from Vodafone.
This is the recommended method — it is instant and avoids any retention calls.
2. Call Asda Mobile Customer Services
Call 2732 from your Asda Mobile phone or 0044 7860 003 730 from any phone. Ask the agent for your PAC code. They may offer you a deal to stay — you are under no obligation to accept, and they must still provide your PAC during the call.
3. Request Online
Log in to your Asda Mobile online account and request your PAC code from the account or "leaving Asda Mobile" section. This is handy if you would rather not call.
What Happens After You Get Your Asda Mobile PAC Code
- Give the PAC to your new provider — they start the porting process for you.
- Your number transfers within 1 working day — keep using your Asda Mobile SIM until the port completes.
- Your Asda Mobile SIM stops working — once the port is done, your old SIM is deactivated automatically.
- Your Asda Mobile contract or plan ends automatically — you do not need to contact Asda Mobile separately to cancel.
How Long Is a Asda Mobile PAC Code Valid?
Your Asda Mobile PAC code is valid for 30 days from the date it is issued. If it expires before you use it, request a new one for free. Requesting a PAC does not cancel your plan — it only starts the switch when you hand the code to your new provider.
Can I Keep My Asda Mobile Number?
Yes — that is exactly what a PAC code is for. When you give your PAC to your new network, your existing Asda Mobile number transfers to the new SIM with no gap in service. You keep the same number you have always had.
What Does a PAC Code Look Like?
A PAC code is nine characters — usually three letters followed by six numbers, for example ABC123456. The format is set by Ofcom and is identical on every UK network.
Things to Check Before Switching from Asda Mobile
- Contract status — if you are still within your minimum term, early termination charges may apply. Asda Mobile will tell you the amount when you request your PAC.
- Outstanding device payments — any remaining balance on a phone plan will need to be paid.
- Add-ons and perks — you will lose any included extras once you leave Asda Mobile.
- Business accounts — if this is a business account, the account holder may need to authorise the PAC request.
Asda Mobile PAC Code vs STAC Code
If you want to leave Asda Mobile but do not want to keep your number, you need a STAC (Service Termination Authorisation Code) instead. Text STAC to 65075 to get one — it ends your contract without porting your number.
