Tony9r Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 I would say they have their own number, as your personal one is within the sim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digga Posted April 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 cheers Tony. i was thinking perhaps you can programme in your old number! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony9r Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 cheers Tony. i was thinking perhaps you can programme in your old number! When you say sim free, do you mean a phone that comes without a sim and is is unlocked? If that's the case, then yes you can use your existing sim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digga Posted April 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Think i"v sussed it ...........the phone dont come with a sim so you can use any sim card you like in it .............hmmmm ps has anyone heard of a ghost sim card where you can switch between services off the one sim card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter_HMR Posted April 1, 2007 Report Share Posted April 1, 2007 Sim free phones come unlocked and will accept any sim card so yes just put your sim card into the new phone and you have your number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
