Sacking off s3 for new iphone.

Ordered sim free 32gb iphone5 from apple for friday delivery.

Went into o2 today, picked up nano sim.

Registered new SIM online through http://swapmysim.o2.co.uk/. Old mini sim turned off about 2 minutes later and new one was activated instantly.

Put it in the supplied adapter and have put into s3 until Friday.
Come Friday simply swap sim over and 'Robert is your uncles brother!'

No queues, no phone calls.

Surely nothing can go wrong now????
Anyone else done the hard bit already?

I would if I could find one... The retailers in my area don't seem to have stock of the nanosims yet. But I purchased nano-micro and nano-full size adapters in case I want to use a different phone.

The adapters come free with the o2 Nano Sims.
 
im gonna pop into my local O2 store tomorrow and see if they got a nano sim.

Nice that they give an converter.

Did you have to prove your a O2 customer for the nano sim?
 
Just waiting for my number to switch over, then I'll be rocking it in the 4S til friday. Taking a bit longer than yours though

Yep. Today I inserted my Nano-SIM into my iPhone 4S. As you said, no queues, no phone calls! All we have to do is wait for the iPhone 5 and we can use it straight away!

Nope, they didn't ask come to think of it.
Just really friendly and said he was a little scared about Friday :)

So how did you insert the nano sim in a 4S which needs a micro sim?

Edit: Sorry missed the converter part :)
