Yes it will work but only operators on 900MHz so o2 or Vodafone, and any MVNO based on their network

you need the old school full size sim cards, go to either Voda or o2 and ask for a PAYG sim, but don't pop it out of the credit card sized holder

Yes, I never thought I would use mine, but find it very useful, with the wheel controls. Also, I find that in poor signal areas it will still work when a handheld won't :y

So Tesco must be Vodafone or O2?
