Solved: Refurbished iPhone - Can I stay with my current co...

Anonymous · ‎20-04-2017

Hi, I'm looking to buy a refurbished Iphone 6s, I don't want to take ou a contract with O2 so was just wondering if I bought a phone from them would i be able to keep my contract I have at the minute or would I have to switch to O2?

All iPhones sold by o2 are locked to o2 so you will need an o2 sim to activate and unlock the phone. You can do this immediately though.

@Anonymous Are you currently on o2? If you bought a refurb from o2 then you would have to take out an o2 contract

If its p&g and the handset isn't locked then yes you can use your present sim.
