Australia payg
Options
Hi all
My son is off to Australia for 12 months at the beginning of March. He currently has a contract with orange. Does anyone know whether if we get his phone unlocked he will be able to use an Australian PAYG sim card in it?
Also, how do we go about getting it unlocked?

Try another sim in it - although if it was direct from Orange it will likely be locked.0 -
A unlocked uk phone will work in Australia. I know this because my Aunt lives there and in the past has bought phones off ebay had them delivered to me and then i have posted them to her.0
