Cutting my current sim sounds tempting but it is a really old sim card . Had it for over 10 years

Yeah, almost definitely an issue if it's that old. :(

Can't believe they're charging for that?

Are you on pre-pay?

Nah. On montly 2 year contract.

Suppose it has to be done i guess if i want to use the one x and its not exactly breaking the bank but still. T mobile are taking the body lemonade.

Will buy some sim adapters just in case i revert to older phones using the standard sized sim

That does seem a bit body lemonade taking. I've never known anywhere charging for a replacement SIM.

Ring up and say its not working, tell them you tried it in another phone so it's deffinately the SIM see if they send it for free then.

Really surprised they're charging though...
