Port Number mid contract???

Is it possible to port a PAYG Orange number to an Orange contract three months into the Orange Contract?

I know it's fine to port a PAYG number at the time you take the Orange contract but anyone know if three months in it's the same?

Thanks

Piers

no its not an orange payg number im transfering, ive transfered my old orange contract number to a t mobile payg sim card then will be transfering back to my new orange contract.. I think u might need to ring orange as I think when u transfer an orange payg number to an orange contract you have to do it at the point of sale, ( when u buy the contract), thats hown it used to be done when i worked at phones 4u.

Yep, you cant port a number on the same network mid contract. You would need to port it out then back in.
