Ok, i'm on o2 pay and go, and i'm getting a genie sim tomorrow. What i want to know is, can i move my current number across to my genie sim? I know it can be done with a contract, but can it be done with pay and go?

i tried exactly the same. but actually you dont need a genie sim card at all. if you ring them up and ask them to change your tariff on your existing sim card for you they'll do it. as with changing a number there is a changeover date (for me was a bout 2 days later and in the middle of the night) so no problems at all
hope this helped, mike

whats teh deal on these genie sims then mate? they worth getting?

Posted by methylated_spirit
Yeah definately if you're pay and go. Theres a couple of tarriffs lee, if you top up a tenner a month, you get 300 free texts, which is pretty sweet. Or, for your tenner, you get 50 anytime any network minutes.

I called them on 08705 678 678, pressed the tarriff options, (one of which is speak to an operator) and spoke to a nice man called Dave who sorted it out in seconds. They will ask you for the serial number printed on your sim, so be prepared.
