    Got a new Iphone on O2 and need to transfer the contacts from my
    old Sony (Meteor).
    What's the easiest way to do this as it's a new sim?
    Thanks.

    Options include;

    1. Bring the old simcard and the new one to o2 store and they will transfer the numbers from one to the other
    2. Pen and paper ;)

    Start backing your phone number to your contacts in gmail, then you can sync them over to the iphone and will always have a backup of your contacts!

    In fairness, its all work. If OP brings the sims to o2 agent, its done. Then he/she can sync to PC or cloud and thats it, backed up. Could not be easier.
