Go into your self serve account and click change SIM. Do not port your number to that card, Do not try and activate that card through the activation process. The self serve process will activate the card for you. 

 

Did you get the SIM wet or something they are usually pretty hardy so its kind of strange that your's stopped working? It's more likely that it is a phone issue then a SIM issue.

Once you receive your new SIM card, you can change the SIM card number on your account and reactivate your service via Self-Serve by following these steps:

  1. Log into your Self-Serve account
  2. Go to Plan and Add-ons > Change SIM card

  1. Enter your new SIM card number into the field. Your SIM card number is found on the back of your SIM card, as outlined in the image below:
