    so junior's phone stopped working and i had an older phone that still works, is there a way of using his sim in the older phone until we get his phone replaced? do any shops sell anything?

    Yes they do
    You can buy a holder that the sun slots into and you can put that into the older phone

    I did the exact same recently

    Went to a phone repair shop in cork for €5 i got it the shop is called Pair in Wilton cork

    I’d imagine most phone shops would have them

    If anywhere still does free sim's get one and it will have a multi adapter built in.

    Dealz and Euro2/Eurogiant sell the adapters or you can just buy a sim for €5 or the shop might sort you out for free hopefully.

    Lyca sims are free

    These are in a stand outside a shop in Donaghmeade Shopping Centre if you are near there.

    When you switch networks, the phone shop will get you a new sim which will be in a plastic card. They will pop out the required mini or micro or nano sim and throw the rest of the plastic card in the bin. Just go into any phone shop and ask for a few of those plastic remnants, you'd be mad to pay money for a 'holder'.
