        New phone is turning up today and having checked my card on the old phone it can be adapted to fit the new one.
        When I got my Nexus 4, I just had the old card punched out by the guy in the high street - but it left jagged bits of chip around the edge because it was an old style card.

        When MrsF moved onto my Nexus 4, we went into the T-Mobile shop, asked for a new SIM and they said "there you are, just ring them and they'll swap it over". No problems.

        When I was getting my OnePlus, I thought I'd get a new SIM card just to make sure it worked properly. Went down to the T-Mobile shop...

        Me: I need a new micro-SIM for my phone, just to swap it over
        T-Mobile twat: why?
        Me: Because I'm getting a new phone, and I've got an old-style SIM card so I need a smaller one. I'm not sure whether it's micro- or nano- I need though.
        T-Mobile twat: Oh, you'll need to know that. I haven't got any nano SIMs
        Me: Well, it's the small one, not the tiny one.
        T-Mobile twat: Dunno
        Me: It's the one that goes in the older iPad but not the really small one for the new ones
        T-Mobile twat: What kind of phone is it?
        Me: OnePlus One
        T-Mobile twat: Never heard of that
        Me: Look, I came in last week for my wife and you just cave me a new SIM card. One of those that can be a big one or a small one
        T-Mobile twat: Oh, you need a combi card. Why didn't you say?
        Me: I didn't know what they were called. Anyway, can I have one of those?
        T-Mobile twat: <gets card>
        Me: If you give me the card, I'll just ring them and change it over
        T-Mobile twat: Is it a personal or business phone?
        Me: Business
        T-Mobile twat: Oh, it's not straightforward doing a business account
        Me: I did it last week for my wife's phone. I just rang them and they swapped it over. If you give me the card, I'll ring them and swap it over
        T-Mobile twat: I'll see if I can do it. What's the number?
        Me: <gives number>
        T-Mobile twat: What's your password?
        Me: Oh I don't know it off hand. I'll have to ask at work
        T-Mobile twat: Oh. I'll have to give you the card, and you'll have to ring them. It's not straightforward though.



        When the phone arrived, I rang them and it switched over there and then.

          When I got my new phone and gave my old one to Mrs P she just popped into the O2 store and said "I need a new sim for one of these" They provided one FOC, she texted SWAP on her old and then gave them the new sim number. Bingo bongo. All sorted.

            You're making me nervous about taking pushing out the sim bit later today to make it smaller.

                I have just about come to terms with clientCo's employees almost universally referring to equipment as equipments, but the requirement for my next bit of work is littered with references to equipment's. I think I need to go for a walk.
