So, I am the PC techie at work, basically anything from wiring a plug, to VB/VBA.

Anyway, the company has decided to move from O2 to EE.

Most of these phones are Iphones and so numbers will transfer whilst restoring the appleid.
However 100 + are in work vans.

At the moment we have been manually copying all contacts from a sim to phone, then back to a new sim.

Surely there is a better way to do this, i've tried googling and looking on Amazon/Ebay. But everything I see is about £5 and I was sort of looking for something a little more professional.

Can anyone recommend anything.

Cheers if you can.Thumbs Up

if the numbers are stored on the phones, then your solution has to be based around the make/model of the phones and how you might be able to connect them to a PC to transfer data off in bulk.

if the phones do not allow for a data connection from which to collect numbers, then your stuck with transferring to the sim card via the handset.

if you have a 100+ handsets of different types then your going to spend a lot of time trying to find solutions which are only going to work for some handsets.

1. Import SIM contacts onto phone.
2. Install a cardDAV app and server software.
3. Get phone to sync contacts with server

That'll also allow you to keep backups of contacts.
