iPhone SIM card

[Janthea]

I am awaiting delivery of my new iPhone 5s any minute now.  Will there be a new SIM card with it or do I have to order one separately.  If so, is it a nano or micro card?

You need a nano sim. It should be included but some have been delivered without one....

If there is none with the phone you can pick one up from your O2 store who will also transfer your number for you.

Thanks, both of you.  I will keep my fingers crossed that it's included.

A nano came with my wife's phone, and we used the 'sim swap' page here on the website to process it. Whole thing was done and dusted in 15 mins, very easy. Frankly it was probably quicker than cutting down a micro! (which I've done in the past)

I once cut down a sim and trashed it !

Glad all went ok for you Ian.

Is the '4G' nano sim the same as last years nano sim .... i got one when i had my iPhone5 but there is one included in the 5S box... do i need to sim-swap or will last years nano work on 4G ok?

Yes.

The 4g sim nano sim is different and needed to attain 4g service.

Now some we're having issues using the normal method when doing this for a 4g sim so you may have to do it the text method way. Look in the link to text swap to 20220

My 5s turned up yesterday - the sim was with it and the swap (via text) took about 10 minutes.
