Mobile Phone Advice [v2]

Still looking for a new phone on contract, and am looking at some of the SIM Onlys. If I was to lose the SIM whilst it is still inside my phone (i.e I lost my phone with the SIM in it), does anyone know what would happen insurance wise/ what Vodafone would do?


Thanks

Dan

They would block your SIM straight away and if you had phone insurance, as long as the small print allowed, would supply a new phone as well as a new SIM!

Im insured with Virgin and am thinking of buying T Mobile SIM. That would be ok?

If the SIM is T-Mobile and it is pay as you go, I would check with T-Mobile, but policy usually is that if you lose youe SIM card, it is blocked immediately. Not sure a T-Mobile SIM will work in a Virgin phone though, and not sure that Virgin will honour their insurance if you have a T-Mobile SIM in their phone!!

Ah. I found out I can get the same deal on Virgin contract.

I'll probably go down Virgin tomorrow to ask them - Thanks for your help mate!
