iphone 6 plus

[Anonymous]

hi folk`s,  i am a pensioner so not very good with mobile phones,  

i have bought an iphone 6 plus which is on o3 , but i use the tesco mobile o2 service. i have been told that if i put my o2 sim card into it it will operate properly. is this correct or do i have to get the phone unlocked?

thank you in advance.

It should be fine if working with a tesco simcard

As far as I am aware a tesco sim will work in an O2 phone, but not the other way round.

That's awkward as it gets then lol.
Who would op go to for unlocking?

That's the way I understood it too but the best way is to try it. If not port your number to tesco as their tariffs are quite reasonable.

Hi @Anonymous Out of interest what phone did you have before (if you are using tesco network)?

Reading this again it seems he wants to put a tesco sim into an o2 phone which should be ok?

Agree I just wonder as @Anonymous said they are not used to mobile phones and have got an iPhone 6.....if they have actually used an iPhone before?...(with regards to iData and iMessage etc etc)

Tesco in o2 works fine.
O2 in Tesco requires an unlock

thank you all for your comments,

                                                  i think i had better clarify thing`s.  i have bought a new iphone 6 plus from someone who had bought it registered to O3 .  i used to use an iphone 5 but the battery life was shocking.        i backed my iphone 5 up to icloud so i know how to transfer my data back.   my phone provider was tesco mobile.,  as i am registered disabled i needed a phone with a longer battery life, so i went for the iphone 6 plus after reading about the battery life.  plus a much larger screen for my old eyes.  all i want to know is if i take my tesco mobile sim card from my iphone 5 and put it in the iphone 6 plus that is on O3, it will work without having the phone unlocked.

thanks.
