    ring meteor so , or go into one of their shops, and get them to give you a new sim, i know someone who lost his sim, they just transferred over the credit and number onto a new sim. should be no hassle.

    check your sim in another phone first just to make sure theres not some freaky problem with the sim & phone combination.

    explain that a little bit better and someone might tell you. Even better ring Eircell or whatever theyre called now. Either a sim is broken or its not. Anyway i'm off to bed.

    Jeepers, you couldn't understand him here, but could in the other one.. there's something up there somewhere!!

    LastIrishMonkey, it took me around 15-20 secs to get the info you need off their website, use the head. €23.05, for a new SIM. They won't charge if your last SIM is broken.

    how old is the meteor sim you tried in the unlocked phone? in the old days, meteor used to lock out the sim if you tried to use it in another phone, they stopped this as people were complaining that even if their battery went and they put their sim in another phone to make a call, it would get blocked..... they'll sort it out for you in a shop

    This is what I was thinking ... Meteor used to block your account as soon as you put the sim into another phone and made one call. The idea was to stop you hust selling the sim loaded with free credit to someone else ...

    Anyway give them a call ... 1905
