iPhone / iPad & Cell C MicroSIM

[fxit_man]

Yup with your network provider or if you have a large SIM already that you wish to use you can always cut it down to size

This.

S either go to your cells / vodacom / mtn etc and get a micro sim, something like R99 fee if I am not mistaken but not sure or google how to cut your current one

Hey guys

Where do you get a microSIM for an iPad?

Go to CellC store. They issue it right there. R100-00 (or do the sim cut technique suggested for free and risk it not working, then go buy mini sim. )

Exactly Nothing to lose right Althought you would seriously need to be blind/mess up badly to fsk it up. The template is pretty precise and you just need a decent pair of scissors.

But having said that I doubt the OP has a spare large working SIM card for his iPad which he can cut, unless he wants to save some cash and buy a new big one and cut it down Just get a proper one imo though. Shop around, I know with Vodacom they range from R39 to R100 depending on which shop you ask

It is relatively easy to cut. As long as you do not cut into the metal contacts, it should be fine, even if it is not cut 100%.

I have a Sim for Namibia that has been 'roughly' cut and works without any trouble. Get a stanley blade and you are good to go

Cut mine down to size... piece of cake

I got mine from vodacom. Price = R105.

Good day

You can get a micro sim at the store,
They can do swap and active while you wait.
What nice with getting a micro sim, you get the board with it,
That if want to put in to normal phone, just put it back in and insert.

On the one hand I can do it myself

On the other, it'll be good to have the store-bought microSIM card as you'll get the adapter in case you want to put it into a normal phone...


...decisions... decisions...

I've tried to cut one myself. It's quite easy. But I think I cut it too small

At least it was not RICA'd...

Scrap that. After two failed attempts... Either I cut it the wrong way round, or the template is not the correct size...

Meh.

HI The_Librarian

Some times easier to get the original one
I know that some places you can get it cut, with a punch like gadget......

This is the Micro SIM template i've used time and time again now

Managed to cut a sim.

Took four sim's before i got it right.

So if you want to DIY, buy a couple of SIM cards, but dont RICA them. Experiment, until you get it right. Then you RICA the final product.

I need to RICA my SIM tomorrow. Will let you guys know whether it's been accepted or not...
