Hi,

I am contemplating changing fromy old Nokia (not smart) payg.

to a payg smartphone.

Will I be able to transfer my number. ( the Sim cards would not be interchangeable)?

Will I be able to top up my credit using a credit or debit card ( for some reason I was unable to do this on the Nokia)?

Hi.

 

1. Yes, you can port your number on PAYG - Regarding the SIM question - if you have a combi-SIM at the moment, the smaller SIM size is inside the SIM already so you may not need a new one (it snaps off to make it smaller)

2. Yes, you can top up using a debit card

 

Enjoy whatever phone you're thinking of getting, Just because I'm curious, what are you looking at getting?

 

I don't use a 'phone much so was thinking of getting an alcatel 1 and see how I get on.

To save the SIM going into hibernation due to lack of use, just remember within every 179 days (~ 6 months) to make a chargeable action like making a chargeable call or text, topping up or buying a Pack or Add-on, not just using your mins, texts or data from any Pack or Add-on you might have.
