Switching networks
Options
Hi
I am currently using a PAYG phone on the Fresh network run by Carphonewarehouse. I find this network ideal for the small amount of calls I make and the emergency backup which I need all the time.
However I now need to replace my phone with one that has a speaker and cannot find any PAYG Fresh compatible phones on the Carphonewarehouse site.
Can I buy a phone supplied for another network run by Carphonewarehouse (Take5 or Mobileworld) and simply transfer my Fresh sim card to it or is it much more complicated?

the majority of the PAYG phones on the CPW website are open to any network normally apart from the ones that are linked to certain product promotions, the easiest way would be to nip in to a store and ask which phones they have that are availible for any network, may have a promotion on if your lucky too0
