The 8125 is used for Cingular only.. if you want to use a Nextel sim card you need to look up "unlock" most places sell unlock codes for about $40...

Unlock

There is a thread that will give you a program to download that will unlock your phone for free. Try mdahacks.com I used it last night took some time but worked like a charm, not sure if that nextel is gonna be compatible with that phone?

Unless I'm mistaken,

8125 = GSM only
Nextel = iDEN/CDMA/PCS

Sounds like you might need to contact the seller for a refund...

Unless you're not based in the US.

BrianC is right

1. 8125=GSM only
2. The best thing to do is try to get that refund
-unless you are unsatisfied with your service. If you have other questions about what phones are compatable with what there is a myriad of websites with ample materials for research. you can start with Phone Scoop , also don't be afraid to call your carrier and ask questions.The worst a carrier can do when you ask questions is tell you it won't work. Often they will try to help the best they can.
Best of Luck !!
