Lost my sim card in Russia

[Anonymous]

Hi, I've lost my sim card being abroad, it is pay & go sim. I've recently toped up it with 10 pounds. How can I get a new sim card?

I've asked this question before...but how on earth do you lose a SIM card that is in your phone?

As mentioned above, if you are back in the UK you can get a new SIM card in any O2 Shop. If you haven't already, call O2 and let them know you have lost your SIM otherwise if anyone should find it and use the credit on it you won't be able to have the credit balance transferred to the new SIM.

If you are still in Russia, you will need to get someone to send you a new PAYG SIm that they activate before sending to you.

Taking it out to use a local one perhaps?

Seems the most obvious way. I change sim cards when overseas.
