Solved: Re: sim swap and 4g

Anonymous · ‎05-08-2017

Hi, I purchased a new Samsung Galaxy 8 and requested a new 4g sim as my previous phone was 3g. I have just done a sim swap request which went through fine. The system then said I need to register for 4g but when I click I went to a strange coded page indicating this had failed. I'm anxious to know if my sim swap will activate 4g services on my new 4g phone, or do I still need to do something to get this?

That's an old legacy page from when 4g was new. All sims and contracts are now 4g so providing customer services did their job properly your 4g services will work automatically.

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.

Currently using:
Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)
