O2 broadband Upgrade

bugs35 · 2013-06-23 21:56:12

Hi Everyone just wondering does anyone know if i can use a prepay broadband modem (o2) with my bill pay sim card . I was thinking of buying the Huawei e586 hotspot modem on prepay for €69.99 instead of having to sign up to another contract with O2. thank you in advance.

Ask in the proper forum?

Mobile internet is not broadband so has it's own forum:

It'll work no problem, the device (modem or phone) has no idea if the sim is pre pay or bill pay.
