RE: Update on SIM card question

2020-04-24 Thread chaltain
Not sure why I should trust someone from Verizon more than someone from AT, 
but in Googling this issue, most of the articles I found said that as long as 
your old SIM card is in good working order, you should be OK to keep using it.

I checked with Verizon it doesn’t matter and it shouldn’t for at either.

Subject: Update on SIM card question

 

I spoke with Xfinity since they are my carrier, and the reason to get a new SIM 
card rather than sticking with the old one, is that at least for Xfinity, they 
would not know what the new phone is because the SIM card ID would say it was 
the first generation SE since that is what I have.

They are sending me a new SIM card.  I can go ahead and use my current SIM card 
until the new one arrives and then I will replace it with the new SIM card.

I will then call them from either my wife’s phone or our landline and they will 
activate the new SIM.

 

Before anyone asks, Xfinity was not a choice when ordering the phone so I got 
the no SIM phone.

 

The moral of the story is, use the old SIM card, but check with your carrier to 
see if it matters.

Hi,
That is interesting. with Verizon  the device is automatically detected via sim 
if there is a device change.
