Mobile phone Q
« on: 10 January 2010, 18:33:13 »

As Tesco mobile uses the o2 network...

Will a Tesco phone work with an o2 sim in it? or would it need to be unlocked?

Additionally, both voda and o2 do lock certain handsets as well, even postpay.

Thanx for the replies so far guys...

Ok.....so what i really wanted to know...
I want to get a basic phone....and have chosen the Nokia 2330 classic.

Tesco sell these for £25 on the tesco mobile.

o2 sell them for £30

I have an o2 sim i want to put in it....

Will the tesco phone work? or will i have to get it unlocked?
If so, i might as well not mess about and get one from o2 to start with  :)
