Hi
I've just bought a Lumia 800 (£115 from tesco BTW) which uses a micro sim. I'm currently using HTC wildfire which uses a normal sized sim.
Is there any way to transfer all my contacts from one sim or phone to another?
Thanks

How is that going to help? The OP needs a smaller not larger SIM.
OP you have two choices ask your network for a Micro SIM (they may charge) or cut it down.0 -

some handsets have transfer wizards that allow contacts to be sent either by email or by bluetooth.. or memory cards if they both had microsd cards.. sometimes the easiest solution is not so drastic..0

OP says the Lumia USES a microSIM. OP doesn't say either way whether he/she HAS a microSIM in the Lumia right now.
