Ol ... so you have a phone that is still locked to Vodafone. This is why ONLY a vodafone SIM can be used in it. Right ?
But your SIM seems to have been transferred over to 48months when you registered it to 48. So it is no longer a Vodafone SIM and this is why it will not work in your locked phone.
Your only option is to get your phone unlocked by Vodafone asap. Call Vodafone and tell them you need to get unlocked but cannot use your phone to do so. Ask them to call another phone with the unlock code, or email it to you, or make it available if you call in to one of their shops ...
It is always important to unlock your phone before you move networks.

Are you trying to use the new SIM from 48 in your locked Vodafone phone ? If so it will not work if it is still locked.
You cannot use the 48 SIM until your phone is unlocked. Call vodaphone and ask if they will give you the information over the phone or on a call in to one of their shops ?

Couldn't get a hold of the shop. Going in tomorrow. You sent me a new number is the 48 sim registered to that number yes? And will work when I unlock my phone?
