New sim only contract and new phone

[Jaylockwood1978]

Hi, i currently have an iPhone with a sim only contract with EE.

i have ordered a new iPhone directly from Apple and upgraded my sim only contract with ee. The new phone arrives today and apparently the new sim in the next day or two. I’m obviously keeping the same number.

When the new phone arrives today, should I set it up, using my existing ee sim, or should i wait until the new upgraded sim arrives? 

Thank you

Jay

A replacement SIM is often supplied incase, for whatever reason, there's a problem with your current SIM or it doesn't fit a new phone.

If your existing SIM is working and fits your new phone, there's no need to unnecessarily replace it.

I wasn’t aware but that’s great, will make it much easier.
