PRESS RELEASE:
As of Friday 30 July, 2degrees customers will be able to swap their current SIM cards for one of the new 2degrees microSIMs.

According to Chief Marketing Officer, Larrie Moore, 2degrees customers have been vocal in their requests for the new SIM card.
“We have a significant number smartphone users on the 2degrees network and a reasonable percentage of those are using an Apple mobile device.
“We will be enabling our customers to swap their current SIM card for a new microSIM, free of charge, from Friday 30 July*.”
A SIM-swap is the transfer of all the customer’s account details, including their current balance over to a new SIM card. To take advantage of the SIM-swap 2degrees customers are required to call: 0800 022 022 from Friday 30 July to initiate the process.
“We will also be selling the microSIM from Tuesday 3 August for $20.00 (with $20 of credit loaded) at Dick Smith stores,” said Larrie.
*Free SIM-swap offer subject to availability.
Comments please!
Good work 2Degrees.
Its very interesting to see that since the last “official” announcement of the Iphone we have had the 2 “non Apple affiliated” companies come to the party with Telecom/XT and 2 Degrees offering Mirco Sims to their customers (I mean they dont even sell the Iphone/Ipad but have made the effort to help), while the trusted, mightier than thou Vodafone have not done anything for their existing or potential customers (they HAD to release micro sims as they are the Apple Carrier of choice…wheres their going to the next level)
Tut Tut…shame on you

Hi All,
I am looking at 2Degrees microsim for an iPad and dick smith told me that it will not work with an iPad but only an iPhone (their sales system has a note to this effect)…. is this true? Surely not?
Thanks
