Is It Possible To Use A 3 Mobile Sim Card In Any Unlocked Mobile?

by admin on July 6, 2009

I have a contract for 18 months with 3 and I don’t like the phone I have. Is it possible to use the 3 sim card in another mobile which is open to all networks?

I would say so yes.

I think yes, but depending on the phone, you might not get all the features you have on the current phone. Do your homework before getting the new phone.

Most phone companies allow it if the phone is open to all networks, unless the sim card isn’t compatable. I don’t see where that would be a factor, though. So, I would assume that you could.

yes it is possible to use three sims at one time in another phone…..but you can work with one at the same time with. dual sim jacket….i use always keep two sims in one phone.

so long as the phone is unlocked then you have no problem in using it .

Yes – I am a three customer and I have done the same thing. But you will have to check the network where the phone belongs to. Some networks does not allow you to have an other network simcard without unlocking. Hence they may not work in your case.

Unfortunately matey 3 pay sim cards only work in some phones, Samsung Z Series handsets accept 3 sims, or a K800 Sony as long as its unlocked, Nokia N95 again has to be unlocked be cautious when buying mate.. Hope U find a good phone.

DONT THINK SO BECAUSE 3 MOBILE HAVE LOCKED THEIR SIM CARDS, I COULD BE WRONG

Only if the phone is 3g otherwise the sim will fry it.
most new phones on all networks are 3g now so dependant on how old the phone is you may be able to.
