MicroSim Question
 
I just gave my mom my old phone which requires micro sim but she only has a normal sim. Can I just grab a new rogers micro sim off craigslist or whatever and get rogers to transfer everything over and activate it? I dont want to spend 40 bucks in store buying one. Thanks

$10

Yes. Costs $10 from the Rogers store and they can transfer everything on the phone for free and activate it.

Or you could be a peasant and cut it yourself but I don't really recommend it. I tried it and my signal was iffy at times...

$10 for microsim from Rogers

Do not cut it. Spend the $10 for a new one.

Just buy one in store. They're cheap anyways. Nowhere near $40.

Your carrier should just give you a new sim for free... that's what they do here at least. It would be stupid not to

Fafine 11-24-2013 02:10 AM

should only cost $10 + tax at your carrier's store.

Rogers reimburse it for me when I called.

If it's an iphone or you have an iphone.... go to apple store and they will give you one for free!

I have a spare micro sim if you need one and you are in Vancouver.
Let me know.

BaoTurbo 11-25-2013 08:56 PM

Its $40 because its $10+ activating it+ administration fee. Dealerships usually charge them for $40
