Sim card cutting

wanna see my snake?
Any idea of anyone in Stafford that can cut sim cards, need a micro trimming down to a nano? I had a cutter but can't find it :(

Probably no use to you but if the card is with Three, you can go into the shop and they'll sort you out with a new on whilst you wait. Maybe the other brands offer the same service?

If you have a scalpel or stanley knife and you're very careful, you can do it yourself using another sim car as a template. I've done it several times with success. If it's a giffgaff sim, I have spare trio sims and you could simply log in and perform a sim swap.

I've got a cutter somewhere.
They're that cheap that I'd think any of the phone repair stalls in the market or guildhall would have one.

Try down loading a template from the internet and use that to mark out the profile on your micro sim and cut to size. I did it this way, outlined the size on the sim, used a stanley knife to scribe the surface to double check size and then used a sharp pair of scissors to cut. I used a nail file to smooth the edges and fitted it no problem. If you have a friend with a nano sim use that to check the size and perhaps check if the thickness is the same before cutting just incase.
