Moving data from sim to phone
Just replaced my dumb phone, does anybody know how to do this? All my contacts are on the sim and I can not get to see them or access them on the phone.

Hello ChangeAgent,
Congrats on getting a new iPhone. I understand that you want to get your contacts off of your SIM from a previous phone that you had. That is something that I can help you out with.
Now I want to get this out there, you can do this as long as the SIM card from your old phone fits into your iPhone. Look at the first article to go over what types of SIM cards are compatible with different models of iPhones.

If after looking at that and can successfully insert your old SIM card into your iPhone, you can go to the Settings app and under Mail, Contacts, Calendars, you will see an option to import contacts from a SIM. Form a more detailed step-by-step process, look at the next article below.
