I've seen a Nokia flip phone I like in the O2 shop (On Pay and Go) but my current phone is PAYG with Orange and the latter don't sell the model that O2 have.
Can I take one of my old Orange phones into an O2 shop and go onto the O2 network using the SIM from the old Orange phone, together with the credit I still have on the Orange network?

I hope that this all does not sound too complicated?

No.

You can buy the new phone on O2 which will come with an O2 SIM card and new number. You can then ring Orange and request a Port Authorization Code (PAC) and give this to O2 who will transfer your number to their network.

Credit cannot be transferred between networks. It's like trying to use Argos Vouchers in Asda.
