I'm just about to upgrade to a new i phone on Orange; can my DD use my old i phone on her existing contract? - she is also on Orange but currently has a blackberry.
I think the sim card is a different size though, so can't just try it. Does anyone know if Orange will supply a new sim without fuss? (I don't mind a small charge)
thanks

My wife uses my old s3 we went to o2 shop and they cut the sim down instore, if you have a orange store near you I would imagine they would cut down your sim0

Last time I went into an Orange shop and asked them to do that they said it would cost me £5!
If she's on contract I'm sure she would be able to order a new micro SIM from them
Here's the link to order a new one from EE https://explore.ee.co.uk/Order-a-new-SIM0 -
Even if the next planned user is also on Orange (EE) I would recommend getting the phone unlocked while under contract as it's much easier to do it now than once there isn't an active contract for the phone.
There are all sorts of reasons why it could be useful to have the phone unlocked.0
