Any scissors, or one with a thin blade?

@gblackma  Thin blade is better.

0.  Check your current SIM card again to remove the Micro-to-Nano adaptor.

1.  You can cut a micro SIM into a nano SIM

Here is a tamplate which used to cut SIM card to nano size.

1. Print the tamplate in actual size

2.  Use double sided tape to tape the template to your SIM card.

3.  Cut it along the nano outline.

4.  Use a nail file to trim it so that it fits in the SIM card tray.

It is that simple.  I had done this procedure 5x without any issues.

2. Buy a new 3-in-1 SIM card for $10 or lower from Amazon or eBay.

3. As @ChuckYeah suggested to ask moderator.

What tool do you use to cut it?

@stookie  The fact that you've been on PM since 2011 is a good enough case for the mods to credit you for the purchase of a new SIM. Cutting it should do that job and avoid technical issues that initially arise from a new SIM

Hey, the best solution to your problem would be to buy a new Public Mobile sim card and then to simply login to you onine account to change your Sim card number.

Pour le remplacement de votre carte SIM vous devez commandez une nouvelle carte SIM. Vous devez aussi vous inscrire sur le libre service pour accéder a votre compte. Si vous avez besoin d aide il vous faudra vous inscrire sur la communoté de public mobile et demander de l aidé au modérateur. I am mot a moderator. Je ne suis pas modérateur

@stookie  Take it to any kiosk and ask them to cut it to the proper size. Most places will do it free of charge.
