How to restore a SIM card

Small plastic rectangles - sim cards - went into our lives together with mobile phones. Our Simka is always a real storehouse of important information, because we store all of our notebooks and incoming SMS messages with touching confessions of love, and even somewhere carefully note the pin-codes from their bank cards. Therefore, the loss of the good old sim card is always a real disaster. Let's look at various life situations when a question arises that is the title of this article.

Situation number 1. How to restore the SIM card if you forgot the pin code

As they say, with whom does not happen. Remember that after entering the wrong PIN three times, the SIM card will be blocked. If this happened, then try to find in your own bins an envelope with a contract that you gave out when buying a sim card. Each pin is assigned a PIN code and a pack-code. Enter the code. If you discarded all the documents issued together with the SIM card or even entered the package code incorrectly, then read the situation number 2.

Situation number 2. How to restore the SIM card if it is damaged

If for any reason your Simka is damaged, broken or just refused to work, you need to replace it. Do not worry, your old number will remain with you. To replace the SIM card, you must go to the nearest customer service center of your mobile operator (not to be confused with the usual network salon), without forgetting to take a passport. As a rule, with a SIM card in your name, office employees will be restored to you in a couple of minutes. The price of the issue? This is clarified by your operator, but in any case the recovery will not take away from you more funds than the purchase of a new SIM card. At the same time, the balance on your new sim card will remain the same as it was on its predecessor, and your relatives, friends and colleagues will be able to reach you through the already well-known figures.

The situation number 3. How to restore the SIM card: the loss of Sims along with a mobile phone

The trouble can lie in not only your fragile sim card, but also a mobile device that you can lose, drown in a pond. Phone can also steal. In case of such a situation, you should immediately call your operator (this can be done from a city phone - you can easily find all the numbers on the Web), give your passport details and ask to block the SIM, briefly explaining the reason. Then you act in the same way as situation # 2, that is, keep the path to the service center.

Situation number 4. How to restore the SIM card, if it is not in your name

Yes, here, of course, so simply the problem can not be solved. The fact is that if you, even for a long time, used a sim card, which when purchased was framed for another person, then it is unlikely to be restored. Although ... you can, of course, try, of course, your chances are slim, because operators carefully take care of the safety and peace of mind of their customers. However, for subscribers of MTS there is good news. If you come to the service center of this operator and ask to restore the SIM card, which is not registered on you, you will be given an application form in which you will state the essence of the question. Then you will be given a small (for example, questions for 10) interrogation - which phone numbers you most often call, how many and when you paid for the phone last time, etc. Answer - "flag", I mean Simka in your hands, do not answer - go yourself and look for the truth elsewhere.

Well, finally, one more situation, which may entail the recovery of the SIM card. If you did not call from the phone number for more than 90 days (there are some disagreements with the Communications Law, which are related to the terms), your number is canceled and after a short time can be sold to another client. If you have time before this sad moment, you will be given the opportunity to restore your number, but for a fee.
