Being sent replacment SIM as current one is 'old'

[FlowerwithNokia]

Notified that I am being sent a new SIM, as current 10+ year old one will not work after Mar 2021, will new SIM work in my Nokia 10+ year old phone?

Hi @FlowerwithNokia 

Yes it will work. It will also give you 5G if you are in a 5G area. If not it will run on 4G.

If the sim is coming with your old number on it should be ready to go. If not, you will need to do a sim swap from your old sim.

I don't think you can get 5G on a 10 year old phone with just a new SIM, the phone will only run on 4G technology at best.

You can't ...but stupidly, I read it as a Nokia 10.

Must away to Specsavers.

O2 didn't introduce 4g until August 2013 so no chance on a 10 year old phone.

Yes, I think I pointed out that I misread the post, so no need to refer to it again really.

Chill out. I wasn't referring you your post......!
