Solved: Upgrade to 5G

missajm · ‎12-05-2021

I have just ordered my upgrade from O2 online.

I'm currently on O2 and have an iphone 8 with 4G and i'm about to receive an iphone 12 with 5G.

I want to keep the same number - is this automatic?

Also because the new phone is 5G will I need to activate a new SIM card or can I transfer my old one?

Many thanks

You'll receive a new 5g sim with your phone.

You will need to do a sim swap to activate it Guide: Sim Swap: a mini guide 2017 update
