Do I need to change my SIM card to a micro-SIM or nano-SIM?

The issue of replacing a Beeline SIM card with a nano-SIM card or micro-SIM is easily resolved. An important detail is the card format used. Smartphones use micro and nano cards. This is a modern SIM format. In this case, replacement is necessary. Old mobile devices are designed for a regular SIM card, which is large.

A 4G module is built into the new card format. It allows you to use high-speed Internet without interference or interruptions. If the Internet is not used, then there is no point in replacing it.

There are three ways to change your Beeline SIM card to a new micro-SIM with the same number:

  1. A trip to the Beeline salon, where communication services are provided, or to partners.
  2. Through delivery. The choice is made on the website or in the application.
  3. Card cutting.

If you want to do everything correctly and officially, then you need to go to the office. This method is simple and risk-free. It allows you to save the current number that a person had. The tariff plan and money in the client’s account remain unchanged.

To change the card format, you will need a passport and a little time to wait. The employee at the office will ask for proof of identity. He will check all the necessary data of the applicant. Upon successful verification, the employee issues a new SIM card. The new card is completely ready for use and retains the previous owner number.

Your personal account on the website or mobile application allows you to change your SIM card. To do this, fill out the form (full name, passport details) and select a convenient time for delivery. Pickup available. All nearby salons are indicated on the map located on the website. The client chooses the delivery location himself.

Cutting current SIM card to micro-SIM and nano-SIM

If you don’t want to go to the office or wait for the courier, then you can make a micro-SIM or nano-SIM card with your own hands. Before cutting, it is worth considering that nano-SIM differs from others in its smaller thickness.

The old SIM card format is rare in modern devices. Therefore, you have to adjust the shape to the size of the slot. To carefully trim the SIM card you need:

  1. Make markings with a pen or thin marker. They should not touch the circuit of the chip.
  2. Cut with scissors or a stationery knife. For greater stability, hold down the SIM card.
  3. After cutting, process the entire contour. You can remove roughness and nicks with a nail file. Finish with sandpaper.
  4. Try the SIM card in the card holder. If the dimensions do not match, use a file and sandpaper to adjust them to the required size.

To be sure, it is recommended to practice on old maps and never rush.

There are nano-sim templates on the Internet that are required for accurate and correct cutting. The downloaded file must be printed on paper and measurements taken. Use scissors to cut out the shape and glue it onto the SIM card. Using scissors and a utility knife, carefully cut and remove unnecessary plastic. Polish the finished SIM card. Use a SIM card holder to make a corner.

Can I do it myself?

Yes, you can cut the plastic yourself. To do this, you need to cut out the nano SIM card according to the template, using the dimensions 12 × 9 × 0.646 mm. We recommend carefully rubbing the card on the plastic side, since the thickness is nano-thin.

Replacing a micro-SIM with a Beeline nano-SIM is a quick and simple procedure. We advise you to use the services of qualified specialists and forget about amateur activities. An alternative option should only be used as a last resort. Bookmark our tips so you don’t lose them!

When might a SIM need to be replaced?

Sim replacement may be required in the following cases:

  • the card was lost or stolen along with the phone;
  • Sim has fallen into disrepair: bent, broken, exposed to water, dilapidated over time, etc.;
  • After purchasing a new smartphone, I needed a card of a different format. For example, a subscriber uses a micro-SIM, but a new device requires a device in nano-SIM format;
  • the subscriber is using an old SIM card that does not support 4G networks.

Let's look at all the reasons and options for solving them in more detail.

SIM card doesn't work

The SIM may not work correctly in the following cases:

  1. The service life has expired. Each individual SIM card has an individual operating time. On average, a device is considered old after 10 years of service. However, the card may fail even earlier. Here everything will depend on the methods of its operation. You can replace your old Sim with a new one at any office center or Beeline branch. Upon entering the office, the subscriber must present the employee with a passport and a dilapidated roller. After this, you need to fill out a special form and wait for the new package to be ready. The subscriber will be informed about the timing and place of receiving the package by a call from the operator or a corresponding SMS message.
  2. Also, a change may be required in the event of a physical breakdown of the mobile product. For example, it is not uncommon for a card to become deformed due to inept cutting of the Sim and self-measurement of the dimensions.
  3. Forced blocking of a number can also cause the SIM card to become inoperative. For example, the number could be blocked by the operator due to a large debt or due to non-use of the card for a long time. On Beeline, a number is blocked if it has not been used for more than 6 months.
  4. User blocking. Turning off the card on its own could happen by accident. For example, if you enter the Pak code incorrectly (10 times). Be that as it may, in order to restore the device’s functionality, the subscriber will have to contact the mobile operator’s office.

Lost or stolen

In case of theft or loss of a cellular device, the subscriber must immediately block the Sim. This can be done by calling tel. 0611 or 8-800-700-0611, or in the user account (LC), through the “Voluntary blocking” tab.

If you decide to call technical support, be prepared to tell the telesystem employee your personal details and the code word you came up with when registering on the network. This condition is necessary to identify the owner of the number.

After voluntary blocking, the owner of the number will be able to restore the SIM card at any time. We will tell you below how to change a Beeline SIM card to a new one and keep the old number, activated services and connected tariff.
