Free. Reply usually within 60 seconds. Code is valid for 30 days.
Do NOT cancel your contract manually
If you cancel your contract before transferring your number, your number will be permanently disconnected and you will lose it. The switching process automatically cancels your old contract once your number has moved.
How to Get Your 1pMobile PAC Code
The quickest way to get your 1pMobile PAC code is to text PAC to 65075 from your 1pMobile phone. You'll receive your PAC code by text within a minute.
To leave 1pMobile and take your phone number with you, you need a PAC code. Text PAC to 65075 from your 1pMobile handset and you will receive the code within 60 seconds, as required by Ofcom regulations.
Alternatively, you can contact 1pMobile customer support via email at support@1pmobile.com to request your PAC code. As a smaller provider, 1pMobile handles much of its customer service through email and its online portal rather than phone lines. They are still obliged to provide your PAC code promptly when requested.
Once you have your PAC code, give it to your new mobile network when you sign up. The new provider will handle the porting process, and your number will typically transfer within one working day. Your 1pMobile account will be closed automatically when the transfer completes. Since 1pMobile has no contracts or minimum terms, there are no cancellation penalties to worry about. Any remaining credit on your account will be forfeited.

1pMobile STAC Code
If you want to leave 1pMobile but do not wish to keep your phone number, you can request a STAC code. Text STAC to 75075 from your 1pMobile phone to receive your Service Termination Authorisation Code.
The STAC code will cancel your 1pMobile service and release your phone number without transferring it to another provider. This is suitable if you have already set up a new number elsewhere or if you simply want to close the account entirely. Your 1pMobile number will be deactivated once the process completes.
1pMobile operates without contracts or commitments, so there are no early termination fees when using a STAC code. However, any credit remaining on your account at the time of cancellation will be lost and is non-refundable. If you have a balance remaining, try to use it before submitting your STAC code.
Which Network Does 1pMobile Use?
1pMobile is a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) that operates on the EE network in the UK. Despite being one of the smallest MVNOs in the country, 1pMobile leverages EE's industry-leading infrastructure to provide its customers with reliable mobile coverage.
Because 1pMobile uses the EE network, customers benefit from access to the UK's largest 4G network, covering over 99% of the population. This means you can expect strong signal strength and data speeds in most parts of the UK, from busy city centres to smaller towns and villages. Coverage in very remote areas may be more limited, so check the EE coverage checker for your postcode.
1pMobile has carved out a niche as one of the UK's most affordable mobile providers. Their pay-as-you-go model charges just 1p per minute for calls and 1p per text, with no monthly fees, no contracts, and no minimum top-up requirements. Data bundles are available at low prices for those who need mobile internet. This ultra-budget approach makes 1pMobile ideal for light users, second phones, or anyone who wants a mobile service with minimal ongoing costs.
