> Swapping sim card between phones - any problems?
Bookmark topic
I buy and fix quite a few phones, both for a bit of extra money and as a hobby, and test them with a couple of spare pay as you go sim cards that I have.
My question is, does constantly swapping the sim card from one phone to another whilst I'm testing a couple of phones do any damage, or will the network either get suspicous and wonder why this particular card is in different phones from one day to the next, or even cancel it? Obviously, eventually the contact on the sim card itself will wear out, but my main question is what the network operator will think!
This is probably a silly question, but I'm good at asking them!

Should cause no probs at all. I own 4 phones and I swap my sim into all of them. Just be careful you don't damage the sim

Thanks. I presume as well this goes the same for my contract sim too?

just a thought... are dual sims available for the P800 to answer the swapping trouble?

Not really thought about it! You could probably get one off Ebay, not sure of cost but can't be much!

a dual sim for one phone means two sims in one phone right?
what you want is pultiple sims with only one line on them to stick in more phones, right?

@vlamm - that's one option, I have seen these devices that can copy or 'clone' sim cards, but are a bit expensive, I'm also not entirely sure about the legality of it as well!
