4G WIFI MINI - Invalid SIM

vkent1 — Fri, 23 Apr 2021 14:46:42 GMT

A year or so ago I had a monthly 4G contract which I need to start using again. But I've plugged my WIFI Mini in to my PC and I get 'Invalid SIM'.

I know the phone number and obviously SIM card number can I get this reinstated?

Thanks

@vkent1 Reading between the lines on your post, I assume you cancelled the contract on the sim? In which case, the phone number will have been re-allocated to someone else. Given the time elapsed, if it was a payg sim, that would also have gone.

So, no, unless you’ve been paying for the contract since you last used the sim, you’ll need to get a new one with a new number.

Thank you, that must be the case.
