128K Virgin Mobile Sim Swop

I just spoke to a lady called Carmen. Very helpfull indead. She said that they are experiencing problems with the 64K sims and that everyone who have problems with their sims will get a new 128K sim. Unfortunately the only way of them finding out who you are is if you complain.

So I'll sugggest that you all maybe post your Virgin Mobile phone number here. They have all your details so then they will be able to know who you are.
If you don't want to give you number here you can e-mail it to [email protected] or PM me your number.

They will then let us know where to pick it up or maybe even courier it to us.

Please guys, they are doing their best.

Does the 128k SIM work in the MTN Huawei data cards?

Piesang · Jul 19, 2006

They are testing it. According to Darlington it works like a charm.

Please explain the difference between the 64k and 128k sim. I have a prepaid sim from VM - which I use in my phone to connect. I dont know if it is 64k or 128 k ?

The sims we got from vm is 64k sims. You can use it for data but there is a problem with the brand of sims thats why most people can't use it in a MTN Data Card or some phones. The 128k sim only have more memory on it thus making it a better card. I'm not sure what it does though. The new cards that vm is getting is another make of sims and is 128k.

I can connect to the net using my i-mate Jasjar as well, but I can't use it in my MTN Datacard. That's why I need a new sim.

It's a pleasure m8. I hope this thing gets sorted soon so we all can enjoy the 50c/MB data rate.

At the moment there is only 6 people, add me and my brother it's 8. I'm sure there's more people that need new sims.

I'm going to foward the 6 numbers of the people in the thread (previous posts) to Virgin Mobile.

do the existing sims work in the vodafone card yet or do you need the enw one?

Piesang · Jul 19, 2006

I haven't tried it in a Vodafone card. I think there is a post somewhere.

I use VM simcard (64K) in my Motorola v3x (3g enabled cellphone), But VM doesn't support 3G(384K) speed yet..

What difference will the 128K simcard make??

And what problems are there with this 64K simcard?
