Solved: Re: Upgrade

If I upgrade from a 4g phone to a 5g one do I need a new sim card? Also, what should I do if I want to keep my same phone number.

@Mike60

You need a new sim to get a 5g signal although a 4g sim will still work in a 5g phone.

Get a sim by calling O2 Guide: Coronavirus Community Help and Support or by going in store and do a sim swap Guide: Sim Swap: a mini guide 2017 update

You don't have to upgrade your sim if you are not in a 5G area @Mike60 .

If you upgrade your deal then you automatically keep your number.

To swap sims (if you get a 5G one and want to use it) follow the instructions on the card it comes with or read the guide below.
