Q − Where can I get a SIM card from?
A − Any high street mobile phone shop will be able to
provide you with a SIM card. Some of the major
supermarket chains also provide mobile phone
services and can supply a SIM card. A useful tip
when choosing a SIM card / service provider
however is to make sure that you have adequate
signal coverage at home; this particularly important if
you live in a very rural area.
Q − Why doesn’t the Amplicom mobile phone have a
telephone number?
A − The telephone number is supplied by the service
provider and will be registered onto the SIM card.
Q − Can I use the SIM card from my old mobile
phone?
A − Yes as long as the SIM card is less than three
years old you can transfer the card over. Some old
SIM cards however are not compatible with the
Amplicom mobile phone as they are from an earlier
generation of SIM card design.
Q − Can I use a SIM card from any mobile phone
company?
A − Yes. The Amplicom mobile phone is what is
termed as an open SIM card phone and so it is not
restricted to any particular service provider or mobile
phone company.
