thanks for that very useful and cheap. why pay £10.00 each time to t-mobile when you can pay £3.98 just the once!!
buy the cutter with adapters

I bought a sim cutter off ebay but it was a dud. the Sim would not align properly in the cutter and it would chop off the edge of the metal contact. I ended up going into a Vodafone store and getting a replacement micro sim for free!

I bought the One X on a second line, the sim that came with the phone was not a micro sim! Good thing I was planning on giving that sim to the wife with my old Desire lol!

i cut it down by myself with the help of the htc micro sim slot opener. works perfect. i cut it down with scissors and then i got the nail file from my girlfriend and filed it down so it fits perfectly.

I have done it without a sim-cutter today. Fits perfect but the sim isn't detected by the phone :/ But its not that tragic I get a free New sim from my carrier anyway which should arrive tommorow. But still curious why it won't work.

O2 gave me a free micro sim and transferred my number to it.
They even gave me a free adapter in case I needed to put it back in my old phone.

Like another poster said above used a cutter to cut my GG sim and it sliced a bit of the bottom edge off and was causing me issues on the phone, sim not recognised and what not.

Asked GG for a replacement sim been 6 working days and STILL NOT received one the downsides of having an internet only support carrier! I'm so angry with them as it's my main number and losing important calls.
