Saving all my data on iPhone
Hi. I am moving from o2 to smarty and want to make sure all my apps, photos, messages etc transfer across. Does it happen automatically as I think my data backs up to iCloud

Agepage99 You can check that your iPhone is backed up to your iCloud account in the Settings.
A change from O2 to Smarty should have absolutely no affect on the data that your phone holds. The sim itself does not actually hold apps, phots, etc - they are actually downloaded to the phone.
Putting in the new sim will only change the number - it will be a random one allocated when you activate the sim. You can then port your own number from O2 using a PAC and then your phone should run on your old number. One tip: iPhones sometimes 'remember' the first number on the sim and so you may need to manually change the number once you have ported it across - there are help articles on this topic if it happens.
