So I recently upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy S8 to an iPhone 11 and want to use it as a backup in case my iPhone is flat and I need to contact someone or if my iPhone is sent off for repair.

 

Will i be ok just simply getting a Three SIM or do I have to get an iD SIM?

Feel free to move it as it is an odd question!

Hello @gearbox162,

We’re sorry to see that you have has no response. If another user has not replied then we would usually get in touch ourselves within 24-48 hours of posting your message.

Our phones are not network locked, so you should be ok to use another UK SIM card inside the phone.
