WTK - SIM Card Replacement

Invisible · Postby **Invisible** » September 23rd, 2012, 2:45 am

Just a little bit of information needed.

I recently cut my SIM to install it in a 4s. I worked perfectly since Tuesday then today (well yesterday) it displayed 'Invalid SIM'. I restarted and it displayed 'NO SIM'. Since then it hasn't worked.

It's not the phone, cus another SIM is installed and it works in the phone.

I used the SIM in a friend's Blackberry and it displayed 'Inset SIM Card'. I guess that my SIM isn't working.

Does anyone know if TSTT/bmobile do SIM replacements because I need this number.

Thanks.

Call *100 and speak to someone. I think you'd have to wait til tuesday to call though

They replace SIM cards. Once the number is in your name, carry some form of ID to any Bmobile main branch and they can transfer your number to a new SIM card

Went through the same this week, Friday I went into mobile with only my ID, and bmobile got a new SIM, cut it and transferred my same number onto the new SIM instantly. Just had to pay $25 for the SIM.

Just a note, I still had my old SIM on and working in my old Nokia, only when I switched off the phone did the new SIM activate.

Entire thing took me 15mins.

Question: In this situation, if the damaged sim is post paid and already off contract, would the new sim require you to enter into a new contract?

I think that you'll need to go to the main branch as the dealers don't have blank sims.

yes but you have to reactivate stuff like call waiting and gprs/edge and stuff

can u get microsims from tstt or do you have to cut your sim?

Invisible · Postby **Invisible** » September 29th, 2012, 7:46 pm

TSTT cuts ur SIMs too. It's not like they have actual manufactured micro SIMs on sale.

up to recently, cut sim. Digicel has mircro sims though I think on request.

Really! I'll have to investiquire!

Someone posted a sim from Digicel back when 4G was launched. They're not as silly as bmobile to just cut a sim. I think you'll probably be offered it when u buy a device like a lumia 800 or s3 though.
