Question About Mobile Networks

burtslimpslon · 2014-07-19 20:54:52

Hi, I broke my phone so I need a new one. I found a phone I like on the O2 website but I really would like to be a meteor customer (their deal suits me better). Can I buy the phone in O2 not get a sim, go to meteor get a sim and put it in and get the deal I want? Or is this impossible? Thanks

No, you'd have to get the phone unlocked, which normally costs.

Buy the phone from Amazon.de sim free (probably cheaper than the O2 price) and then just keep the meteor sim.
