Using contract sim with unlocked iphone

Hi, Please can anyone help! I have a unlocked iphone, version 1.1.1 What I need to know is - If I put a contract sim in iphone with unlimited data or what ever it may be,either on vodaphone or o2 will I be able to use this data allowance etc as I would if it were in the phone I first took contract out with ? Also if it were an o2 contract would visual voicemail work ? I have been told very conflicting advice on all these question.Has anyone done this?Any advice much appreciated.Thanks

You need to post this sort of question on the iPhone forums to get the best info, try this one:

There are many other iPhone forums worth looking at if you google....

Your data allowance etc will be fine to use.

Visual voicemail, however, will not work unless you are using an O2 iphone contract sim.

Hope this helps
