Vodafone Contract

[maddy]

Does anyone know if contact phones on vodafone - can u stick and 02 sim in it or does it have to be unlocked??

All contract phones are generic.............i think, which means it can accept any sim card, ie/ all four sim-locks are open.
But if you have contract sim card, and you agree to the contract say for the 1 year, you have to still pay for the contract even if you put in a pay as you go sim card in the phone....and go pay as you talk..

as a rule of thumb:

contract handset:

vodafone: unlocked
o2: unlocked
orange: locked
T-Mobile: locked

payg handset:

all networks: locked

on occasion u may get an exception to this rule
