Is my phone already unlocked?

[Anonymous]

Hi there,

Just upgraded from iphone4 to 5 yesterday, still on O2. I bought the iphone4 in phones4U and as far as i'm aware its unlocked (there's no O2 branding on it anywhere). I bought the new iphone5 direct from O2 yesterday over the phone.

I want to give my iphone4 to my wife who's on TMobile.

I know there's an unlock form on here but if I fill that in it will unlock my current new iphone5.

Quick question then: How do I check my old phone is unlocked or can you send me a Free PAYGO Sim to test it out?

Cheers,

Stu

Here is a link to order a TMobile SIM card. Hope the mods are ok with this

If it is unlocked then ask TMobile to sim swap which moves your wife's mobile number and tariff from her old sim to a new micro SIM card.

Edit to change version of sim required.

Bear in mind if your wife wants to keep her number T-mobile may impose a £10 charge as they do for replacing a SIM.

Ridiculous fee. 😞

£1 in a phone repair shop or market stall to get it cut down!
