    I've now been activated. However, I'm not sure if I have just received activation or whether it happened a few days ago. I presumed that when the phone was activated that I would have some calling credit. But, I now realise that it still says I have no calling credit, but goes on to say that I have my bundle. I've tested the phone and everything works. I have my minutes and internet. So - bye bye incompetent O2 - who told me that if I couldn't access the internet that my phone must be faulty and that I should return it.

    Can you check online to find out how many minutes you have?

    Not sure about bundle minutes, but you can set up an online account. http://www.phoneshopbysainsburys.co.uk/faqs/view/id/25

    I've been asked by SbM to dial 121 to pick up a. voice message . If I do so, can they send a paper bill to the address they sent the free sim to?

    Never received any sims :(
    I started with nothing and I am proud to say I still have most of it left.

    Anyone who received three SIMs got the next one activated?

    Yes (bundle applied 3 days after making the 'activation' call).

    Interestingly, pulled over 10GB in a dongle last month before the data bundle expired.
    Good old Sainsburys :beer:

    After a quick call to CS, I was told activation was a totally automated service and if after a week nothing's happened, they would manually make it active. Can't really complain as it's free. C'mon Friday. ;)

    Anybody with any remaining un-activated Sainsbury's SIMs remember to get them activated as the free bundle offer ends today.

    I really hope they repeat this offer soon.

    Sainsbury's Mobile had an extended computer systems crash yesterday but eventually got my last one working. :)
