    Hi, if all you need is the sim number and the phone's IMEI number to get the credit, then am I correct in thinking that I can register online, get the £10 on the sim and put it in a different orange phone, and leave the phone unopened in its box to sell??

    So we can get the £7.73 LG phone with 200 points, send it right back to tesco for recycling keeping the sim and charger for spare or ebay and get another 200 points giving £16 rewards for a £7.73 outlay. Result or what seeing as this can be done 5 times in a 12 month period giving about a £41 profit in rewards and doing our bit for recycling lol.

    Ok, this looks interesting as I need to transfer a 3 number to another network temporalily then move it to a new contracted 3 phone. Where would this leave the orange sim / credit / number. Would I end up only gaining the benefits of an orange sim and credit whiel my number is moving around then the sim and remaining credit be useless i.e. not on orange?

    Was needing a sim for the tranfer process but seeing this looked interesting as probably cost me £10 to put some credit onto a sim anyway. Ideal if I could still get the benefits of orange afterwards tho.
    If only I could stop finding good bargains on this site, I would save a fortune! :rotfl:

    Just ordered one thanks - had to go for 'collect in store' to avoid a £5 delivery charge.

    Mine's just arrived. You have to open the box to get the SIM.
