iPhone 4 O2 PAYG - Contract Sim use

[PilotWoo]

Just bought a PAYG iPhone 4 on O2. Can I put my contract O2 sim in and use that without jailbreaking? I appreciate I will need a microsim.

Thanks.

Should be fine.

Yes, it will be fine. The phone is only carrier locked; no further restrictions are placed.

As others have said, it'll be fine. It's carrier locked.

Thanks everyone.

I see that O2 is now selling the iPhone 4 as PAYG for £495. You do realize that you can get a factory unlocked one that will work with carriers all over the world for £499 at the Apple Store.

For the extra four £, I was able to use mine in the USA on ATT, and while I am currently quite happy with my no-contract Simplicity iPhone plan at £20, if somebody here offers something better, I am free to switch.

If you got your phone within the past 14 days, it's something to consider.

yes but you need to do this to make the internets to work

Make sure your contract has enough data allowance. When I did this they kept telling me I had the web daily thingy which should have capped usage at £1 a day. Then they changed their minds and gave me a monthly bill of £250. If your tariff doesn't have enough data have a look at the web bolt-on

or you can always turn off data on 4.0 (in the settings) then you can just use wifi for free data.
