Using SIM card in another handset


Hello,

I am a gentleman of a certain age.. 83!.. and I just cannot get on with my Nokia flip top phone.

I want to go back to a simple push button style. Not bothered about internet or camera etc.

So 2 questions please.

  1. Can I move my SIM into another handset?
  2. What ‘Old Man’ handsets are compatible with my current SIM?

Thank you ever so much in advance.

Hi ​@Pete Oldale 

 

You’ll be able to move your SIM card to another handset, however as ​@MZone suggests it’ll be worth checking the list to check what devices we support officially.

 

It may be best to pop into your local Currys store for suggestions on what phone suitable for your needs can also be used on iD Mobile.
