New phone for xmas

[Anonymous]

Hi, may be a bit of a silly question, but if I get a new upgraded phone for my daughter for xmas will her current SIM card be ok to use until then? Will it just be a simple case of swapping on xmas?

thanks

The tariff will change on her sim card so she can continue to use the current sim in both her current phone and the new one (if same size).
If the new phone requires a smaller sim, it can be swapped online when she gets the new phone.

You should get a new sim with the phone. If your present sim is the wrong size you can pop into the local store but it may be as well to do it before Christmas Day as the limited staff will obviously be extremely busy swapping sims. Just a suggestion unless the phone is a total surprise for her.

Had a similar issue with a family member. His new phone (Xmas present) takes a nano sim. His current one has a micro sim.

He took it instore and swapped the sim for a 2-1. Still able to use his old phone now and will push out the nano section on Chrismas Day and straight into his new device....'Sorted'...
