Best way to get a SIM card cut down to microSIM size?

[editor]

I'm about to get a new phone and it takes a microSIM so my current card won't work.
I'm on GiffGaff and if you order a replacement card you'll be cut off for a few days so their forum users recommend getting the existing cars cut down in a phone shop for a quid or two.

Any recommendations?

Twitter provided the answer - I bought a SIM cutter on eBay for £1.99.

I did it myself with a pair of scissors when I was on Giffgaff...there should be a template online somewhere!

The £1.99 sim cutter has arrived, as has the 64GB micro SIM card so I'm now all ready for the new phone to arrive

There's a little plastic caddy thing so I can still use the micro SIM with my old phone should the need arise.

They sent me a DIY template with the sim.

Takes balls to chop your own microSIM with kitchen scissors.

I did my SIM with a pair of nail clippers and fucked it

I'll move this into the mobile forum...

Let us know if it indeed works!

If it does, I'll be happy to let others have a go on the thing.

I asked a local phone shop to cut mine down - they used a very similar looking device - very straightforward - slide the SIM in and snip

mine was an old style giffgaff SIM too

sadly it fucked the chip somehow

Kitchen scissors.

I just gnawed mine down to size.

it was worth buying just for that feature.
