All IPhone 4 & IPad customers worldwide have a couple options to convert their existing sim card to micro size 3FF format.
A Break Down of the current option.
1 Cut using Scissors.
manually cuttting micro sim card
Use Scissors and Risk Loosing your Contact & SMS stored in the network sim card and even worse is having to be without a network sim card and loose ability of receiving / making calls/sms/mms while your mobile network send you a new network sim and often at a cost.
Tip to use is if you really want to use scissors and risk it then divert all you call to another number in case you damage it so you don’t loose incoming calls while awaiting a replacement network simcard.
You can use these USSD codes below to set your divert option if you cant find the menu in your phones so you don’t loose business or personal calls if you end up messing it up.
| Set and Activate divert all calls to | **21*DestinationNumber# Then Press Call Button |
Its worth noting that most mobile network only allows call diversion if you have a Post Pay account and the majority of users on pre pay networks cannot use this function to protect themselves from loss of earning due to loss of calls.
The Rebel Sim Team Advise against taking any kinds of risks where you could break your sim and even worse loose your contacts and if you have not already backed up all data on your networks sims then stay clear from this option.
If you do realy want to do it this way then we advise you to purchase a Rebel Full Size programmer and use the software supplied which can be used to Backup SMS & Contact Data from network sim cards or from the Rebel Activation/Phone book Card.
