Re: P-SIM not installed
Mine came with the Sim installed but not "activated". It took a visit to the Dealer to have Vodafone set up the 12 month trial. I use 3 on my phone but found Vodafone actually gave a better signal the other day when I was trying to do something that needed the web. With the car providing a...
