But if you are taking the phone, you have 2 choices. 1 port to O2 yourself. 2 Get the new iphone unlocked and get a new sim from Meteor as your normal sim will not fit in the iphone.

rizzee wrote: » Yep, you could move to O2 (even PAYG)and it'll work perfect. Depends on the model of the phone, what are you looking to get? Most phones on the market can be unlocked at the moment.
rizzee wrote: » Yeah you can get them unlocked. There's much better phones on the market than the iphone but if that's what you want, go for it.

ED E wrote: » You can, but there is a cost involved. From a quick glance 5s's cost about £50 (€62) to get the NUC.
