> How Often do you Change your Mobile Number?
Bookmark topic
God years ago i had 4 mobile contracts at once and i just had to always have the latest phone so i kept taking out new contracts and could not be bothered to take my number with me plus i heard that changing your number to another network can have its downsides such as connection problems when recieving calls. My sister in law has that problem when she transfered her number. Plus it was laziness. Then one day i paid off all contracts and will never do it again or get a contract again. Then when i went to pre pay i kept swapping again trying to find best value pre pay service. My friends and family got so irritated my brother had 7 numbers in his phone for me. Oh dear. Now for past 6 months i stuck with O2 pre pay and am happy. I used to change on average my number every 2 to 3 months. Silly really.

I've had the same number for almost 5 years now. I'll give it up when they pry my phone from my cold dead fingers....

I've got about 15 SIM cards for each of my phones - only got one left that's not used. So I'll have to get some more some - which means more numbers

I've had my number for about 11 years. Way too much hassle to change it. I do get annoyed with people who text you every 6 months with a new number as well!

I once had a mobile number which was on Virgin Mobile and it ended with 666. I never kept that number for long as its THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST.

Had my number for nearly 7 years and i'll never ever change it unless i get offered a fortune for it lol. It is like this;
07754615461
The 077 then 4 numbers which are then repeated in the exact same sequence it is just too good to give up.

I used to change mine once every year because customers would inevitably get hold of it and call me with computer problems at stupid times of the night instead of leaving a message on the workshop's answer phone!
I haven't got the workshop now though so I just switch the mobile off and family and friends call me on the (ex-directory and highly secret) landline if it's an emergency.

I am guilty of changing my numbers about once a year but every number I get must at least 2 8's in it.
