Default Gen 1 sim cards

Looking for a generation 1 digital sim card (in c/card size format) for my car. PAYG too. Anyone know where I can get one? Needs to be O2 (or whatever they were before) or maybe vodafone.

Can't find on fleabay and none of the staff in the o2 or voda shops know what I'm talking about, including carphone warehouse! And the staff there didn't get the irony of the situation

Do you mean a Sim that has not been pulled away from the credit card bit?
If so i've got 3 of them on 02 which are not doing anything.

He/you are basically after a really old sim card- they used to be credit card sized.

As above - are they not the still the same but now smaller (i.e. don't pull it out of the credit card sized thing and it'd work)?

If not, I've got an original credit card sized one (not perforated like the one above) that was on Cellnet/O2 PAYG but the phone broke so I expect the sim will have been deactived as it hasn't been used for so long. If its of use you can have it if I can find it!

can't believe the muppets in cpw didn't know what you were talking about, not so long ago they had to press the old stlye cards to get a small sized card out of it..

any new sim card (that hasn't been touched by anyone in store) will come in the credit card size and you would normally pop the small sim out.. one of those will do the job fine, or you could buy an adapter to hold a small sim (normally used for sim readers) only a quid or two..

hope that helps..

Got a card with the press out sim but they don't work. Needs a gen 1 card, not a gen 2 which is what most places stock.
