    Not entirely true. If they wanted people to buy phones then they wouldnt do 3 pay sim only packs

    So you can buy the sim pack, and then transfer to best of both - Yes but you will still have to purchase a phone correct

    No you can get a 3pay sim and just stick it in your phone. if I buy one of these could I get on the best of both plan without buying a phone?

    No you will need to sign up to the best of both contract. If you have an unlocked 3g phone then just get the cheapest phone available on the plan. If your already a 3 pay customer when you are signing up tell them you want to keep your 3pay number and they will move it to the best of both sim

    You can only but a pre pay sim only. If you are porting in from another network then you would be best just signing straight up to the best of both plan
