I have got a new o2 pay as you go sim, i have put in my phone but it does not receive any reception. How do i activate the sim?

in the book it says top up £10, but in the past they have been activated without topping up.

You do not need to top it up to receive a signal - it should work without topping it up. You're best off not topping it up incase the SIM is faulty. Take it to your local O2 shop and they will sort it for you there and then.

As the above poster said, O2 SIMs should be able to pick up a signal as soon as you put them into your phone & you should be able to dial 4444 to top up to activate it.

if there is no signal chances are it is a faulty SIM card, there was a whole batch of 'em sent out a few months ago.
