    Just to verify if I have 2 sim cards using this 12 in 1 copier it will allow me to copy all my sim cards onto one and hopefully work. Can anyone tell me if it will work with a new T-mobile PAYGO and an Orange older sim?
    Regards.

    It's not entirely obvious is it. Has anybody actually tried one of these?

    There seems to be more info here:

    but I notice that the prices are significantly higher than the eBay ones.

    Don't see why not, as long as the mobile you're using is unlocked to all providers.

    After doing a bit more research on this, my understanding is that the software that copies the data from your original SIM to the Multi-SIM needs to 'crack' the protection on the original SIM. Whether it can do this seems to depend on what type(s) of original SIM(s) you have. It's not clear (to me) how you figure out what 'type' your SIM is, and I'm guessing that the only way of finding out whether it'll work for you is to actually try it.
