You’ll probably need an updated 4G SIM card which you can get in any o2 store & they will do a sim swap for you

@Anonymous Before u get a new sim, just check your old one.  If it has 4G some where in the number then it's already a 4G sim.

 

some times says 4gpp2 or 4gp3 or something like that.  But if it has 4G written in the numbers etc, then it's a 4G sim 

Need Help, Just ask. We are one big Family here in the o2 Forum.
Use iPhone XS Max dual sim, SE, Honor 10, IPad Pro 11, Apple Watch 4 LTE, 100+ Mpbs Barrier and a Record Player.
