Orange Contract SIM in PAYG phone

Hi all,

Apologies for the newbie question, but I've not been able to find a definitive answer on this, and you seem like a knowledgable bunch...

Is it possible to put an orange corporate contract SIM into an Orange Pay as you go phone?


Thanks

Rory

    yes you could put an orange contract sim into a orange payg phone. you could do it in a tmobile branded handset and it would still work. the only thing is the branding and wap links, take my phone for example, i have a virgin sim in a tmobile handset and i have tmobile wap links which dont work

    You couldn't put it a T-Mobile handset unless it had been previously unlocked.

    A Virgin SIM will work in a T-Mobile handset but you need to change the connection settings which are available from Virgin.
