Can i use my contract sim in a new payg blackberry?

Hi folks,

 

I was just wondering whether i could use my contract sim in a payg blackberry?

 

I currently have a blackberry, and pay for blackberry services in my contract, however my phone is broken. Ive not long stopped my insurance, and am just out of my 12 month warranty.

I want to buy a new blackberry (just a basic one) but want to make sure it will work fine if i just put my sim in it?

Or do i need to ring vodafone to to activate the phone with my contract...or something like that...?

 

if anyone could help, id be very greatful.

 

Thanks!

Dear jolowry,

 

As long as the BlackBerry handset is either a Vodafone brnaded or unlocked handset, all you nned to do is put your SIM in. Apart from setting up your email accounts again, there is nothing else that you need to do.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Cheers
