@Qball 

You usually get a new sim with a new device, though  your old one will work in it for the time being.

I spoke with a gentleman from O2 earlier after many attempts and he couldn't give me a direct answer if my old SIM would work or even if the new phone would come with a new SIM. fingers crossed it will work for the time being untill I can get a new up to date SIM ordered if the new phone fails to be supplied with one!

It will work fine but obviously won't pick up 5g. You can swap later when the mayhem dies down.
I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
