    Can you use a O2 contract sim card in an O2 speakeasy phone (pre-pay)?

    Basically my sister has an O2 contract phone from her work, but the phones available to her from work are pretty awful.

    So she was wondering could she just buy the Nokia 6300 from carphone warehouse for €99 on speakeasy and simply switch her o2 contract sim card into it.

    In advance thanks for any help.

    tell her to get an upgrade pack as opposed to one that comes with a new sim card. then get her to give you the imei (serial number) of the phone. you can get the imei either on the box the phone came in, under the battery or by typing *#06# on the main screen.

    then log into the o2 site and register it in your name. you'll have to register your details on the site before you can register the upgrade

    having just logged in i can tell you that to register the imei, click "claim speakeasy credit"->"claim your upgrade credit" and stick the imei in there
