**thumbup yeah you should be able to put it in any phone, as long as the phone accepts it but if it dont you can get it unlocked at any phone shop, it costs about 5 quid then it will accept any sim |

Make sure you buy an unlocked phone. Older phones can be unlocked but newer ones can't. The only ones I'm certain of is the Nokia N Series but this could affect the New Sony Ericsson's and other new popular phones. They use a new Encryption technique which means they can't be unlocked without the original provider's consent, most providers will give you an unlocking code but only after you have met certain criteria such as spending £20 (virgin) or been with them for a year (O2). If the phone is unlocked it should say on the Ebay site. You can also buy a phone locked to Vodaphone. |
