Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / T-Mobile / November 2003New Phone
I'm currently a T-Mobil customer with an expired contract. If I sign up for another year & get a new phone (v66) is it possible to switch the sim card back to my old & use my old phone occasionally as a backup? >I'm currently a T-Mobil customer with an expired contract.

Any phone in working condition will be able to be used. That's one of the beauties of GSM. As long as it's charged up, it'll be ready to go. > >I'm currently a T-Mobil customer with an expired contract.

Assuming this is true, it's a terrific advantage and makes my decision easier. I was considering a switch just for a T610/616 Bluetooth phone (T608 not yet available for Sprint), and now will also buy some non-Bluetooth GSM klunker on eBay as a "backup". >> >I'm currently a T-Mobil customer with an expired contract.

Not only that but your phone numbers are saved on the SIM too. > >> >I'm currently a T-Mobil customer with an expired contract.

Only if you SAVE them to SIM... dpeends on handset and how you save them... dont just assume... check manual Not necessarily if the phone is locked to a different carrier say Cingular or AT&T. But you can always use an old T-Mobile's phone anytime, just buy transferring your sim-card to the phone. > >I'm currently a T-Mobil customer with an expired contract.

Yes, but It is my experience that the v66 is a rather delicate little phone (but still really cool). Hard to beat for size, and reception is good. If you have never had a phone break, maybe it will work out. Otherwise I would give at least some brief consideration to another model. Thanks. After reading a lot of the same comments on cnet I came to exact same conclusion this afternoon. <<lots of other negatives also>> > > I'm currently a T-Mobil customer with an expired contract.
