Help....standard sim

[CHeys999]

Hi Everyone, can you help please? My sister is in a nursing home and has been ordered a tablet that has 2G or 3G capacity and the description states it can take a standard sim.

Can you tell me if I add a sim only plan to my current account will this be sufficent for her tablet needs please?

Thank you

You need a data sim.

Hi MI5

thank you, I believe the tablet can be used to make calls. Does that make a difference

The tablet may be capable (I have one that is) but O2 won't allow it.

I have a Three sim in mine who do allow calls to be made on their tablet sims.
