I phoned Orange cs earlier this evening to cancel my contract and transfer my number to a PAYG sim card this all went fine and the guy said to put the new sim card in a leave it on for 24 hours as i should recive the sms to sort all my settings.
Ive put the new sim card in and turned the phone on but all i get is a message saying "SIM card registration failed" and i have no signal or orange logo at the top of my screen is this normal? as i cannot see how i can recive the txt when it appears my phone isnt connecting to the network.

Above problem is sorted now have a new problem.

Someone PUK blocked my sim and orange online area is absolutly useless its slow and i hate needing to use it especially as all im getting when trying to get my PUK code is
"We are sorry but this service is temporarily unavailable while we carry out some essential maintenance.
Please try again later."
Is there another way to get your PUK code online or am i going to have to go through the joys of the phone system where il be placed on hold for half an hour :mad:
Sorry for the slight rant tis not a good day :o

Thank you yet again Dolph i promised to stop asking questions soon :p , just got my mum to phone up as shes the account holder and its all sorted :)
 
O2 should be fine about it i would have thought, dont get me started on Oranges free txt tarriff though ive put £25 on in the last week and had 3 or 4 msgs that are just random garbage with a string of numbers, which i guess should be the txts telling me about my free allowence but im still being charged and its costing me a fortune :( any ideas before i spend some free time on the phone to orange?
 
the text i recived on the 25/5 says i need to top up by £10 by the 24/6 to recive my free texts so does that mean il get them on the 24? but it still doesnt explain the weird messages im gettin from orange il try and get one on the pc and copy it into here
 
cheers for the help as always dolph, looks like its because i store them on the memory card then is there any harm in those messages not being recived properly?
