    No, sorry, you're wrong. Having been a manager in Phones4u for 4 years I know for a fact its impossible to block a top up in such a way that it will only work with one sim card. I also know for a fact that any sim can be used with any unlocked phone, with the exception of sim cards and handsets belonging to the 3 network.

    The only thing I'd be worried about with this, is if they are pre-loading the top up to the sim before they send the phone out, as that would be the only way they could guarantee the top up goes onto the phone.

    Is there any way of using a 3 sim with another phone or a 3 phone with another sim - i.e. can phone be umblocked?

    Cheers
