Good day Craig,

Thank you for taking the time to raise your concerns and affording us the opportunity to address them. Kindly accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Kindly please be advised that as per business rules, you cannot swap your already existing number on contract with a number you already have. What can be done is that you can request a MSISDN(number) swap but we will have to allocate a number to you from the available number range and you cannot personally pick your own number. Also note that this will depend on the package that you are on and there are no guarantees that that number will not be a refurbished number as all deactivated numbers are re-cycled and re-allocated to new users.

You can visit any of our MTN stores should you wish to continue with the above and they will assist further.

We sincerely hope that the above is in order and that we are able to restore your faith in us.

Kind Regards

Tshepo M
