Delaying Pay Monthly SIM Activation

[Blooberchoo]

Hi.

If I order a pay monthly SIM, will it remain unactivated until I install it in my phone? I want to order one now whilst there a good deal on, but my contract with my current provider doesn't expire for another 2 weeks, and I don't want an overlap in services.  

Thanks in advance.

No. They run from when they are purchased.

If you are only 2 weeks off your present contract expiring you should be able to get a PAC code without penalty..

Text INFO to 85075 from your present SIM that will tell you if there are charges or not
