Hi, I'm thinking of getting a device through Sky mobile. However, I want to continue using my sim with o2 so just want the device. It doesn't let me not select a sim on checkout. I've been told that I can just not use the sim but do I select a plastic sim or an e sim on checkout if I won't be using it ?

If you can't checkout without a SIM then simply do not activate it - you won't be charged and it will drop off your account after a month.

If it won't let you proceed with the order without selecting a sim then personally I would select the ordinary plastic sim @Shannon123 and don't activate it when it arrives.
