Follow these instructions if you have lost or damaged your SIM or if your SIM has been deactivated or blocked. In this situation you cannot use your old SIM card.<\/p>\n

1. Insert new SIM Card into your device.<\/p>\n

2. Dial 141# to activate your new SIM.<\/p>\n

3. Dial 173*3# to start the SIM Swap process.<\/p>\n

4. You will be prompted to enter the cellphone number for which you are doing the SIM swap and the reason for the doing the SIM swap. The cellphone number you’re doing the SIM swap for is your OLD number (NOT the new number from step 1 above).<\/p>\n

5. You will be sent an SMS containing the steps you need to take in order to complete the SIM Swap. Note that at this stage you will have to answer a set of security questions in order to continue with the SIM Swap. You will have 3 minutes to answer all the questions. Note that whilst answering the questions, you may skip some of the questions if you don’t know (or have the answer) to the specific question.<\/p>\n

Inquiries will focus on topics like the number you text the most, your current airtime balance, the price plan your old number was on, the number you dial the most, and your typical airtime usage over the course of a month.<\/p>\n

6. Once your answers are validated, you will receive an SMS to let you know if the SIM Swap was successful.<\/p>\n
