How To Request An Exchange With SIM Card

Hi!  I have 3 unused regular sized (full size) SIM cards that cannot fit in any cell phone today. I would like to exchange them for tri-punch sim cards. How can I go about doing this?

@coltonyyz I have done this successfully just be sure to cut accurately and smooth any "burrs". Otherwise it may jam in the phone and be difficult to remove.

Actually,!

Go to any Bell, Rogers and Telus store and ask them for sim adapter tool for nano sim, then use an exacto/scissor and cut the sim! That’s probably the best way!

I think it would be a tough go asking for a free exchange.  These full size SIM cards were likely acquired back in the day when they were free issue.

I think you might have to just buy a new SIM from PM website, Walmart or WOW! Then maybe contact a mod and ask for an account credit or smth like that!
