  • Quick advice folks

    If Mr A got the deal for 2 sims(i.e 10 + 7.50). Give one of the sim to Mr B.

    Mr B used to be with 02, quickly ask for a PAC code, which was given.

    Can Mr B now uses his PAC code in one of the Tmobile sim even though he was NOT the one that got the sims directly from Tmobile.

    Please help clarify.

    I would hope so. That's what I plan to do. My relative (who got the 2nd sim for me) asked and they said it would be ok. When I get my sim, if there's any hassle I'll post back.

    The account holder MR A should be able to use the other person,s MR B,s pac code to get the number ported to the sim used by MR B.

    Mr B couldnt arrange it himself.

    Just got this deal for £10pm. Rep had to 'speak to the Manager' as she was trying to tell me I couldn't have a micro sim for my iphone 4, but otherwise very helpful!

    Contract with O2 doesn't expire until November but this deal was too good to miss :).

    A bit nervous about porting my number over come November but otherwise very happy. Miles better than anything 02 could offer me.

    I was nervous too but when I called 02 they said I would receive my PAC number in the next 24 hours via text. I then put my t-mobile sim in phone and called them to give them the PAC number and they said the port would happen in 2 days but mine happened the next day.

    I phone O2 the day I got my T-Mobile sim, they gave me my PAC over the phone, I called T-Mobile advised them of my PAC and 2 days later everything was working fine.

    It was very easy to do
  • Thanks guys - much appreciated!

    Now all I've got left to worry about is the coverage near me :S. Looks fine but am going to bung the sim in when it arrives tomorrow and have a play.

    Anyone have any issues with T Mobile coverage/3G etc?

    I was on O2 and couldn't get any 3G at home, but with T-Mobile I'm getting a full 5 bars on 3G.

    Also since T-Mobile and Orange are now together you can sign-up to also us Orange 2G signal and more in future months

    Plus T-Mobile and 3 use the same 3G network, they are join partners in it.
  • One last question (I hope!)

    When I rang up and asked about the sim, I was told it wasn't an 'IPhone Tariff'. Can anyone tell me what I might be missing if I'm using a 'normal' sim tariff in an IPhone 4? Will visual voicemail etc still work? Is there any real difference in what an IPhone specific tariff provides compared to a normal one?

    You shouldn't be missing anything. Its just not specifically called an 'iphone tariff' that's all. Not sure about visual voicemail, don't see why it wouldn't work?
