Z500 isn't a 3G handset is it? I thought you could only use it in the USA? But yeah a 2G sim should work in a 3G phone no problem.

he means a samsung z500, I'm not 100% sure mate but i think o2 might use the new sims for the 3g phones, and have you tried changing the network mode on the actual phone from UMTS to 900/1800?
