	Mister Micawber  +  318386 Mon, 22 Jan 07 02:13 PM Hello Karuna, and welcome to English Forums.  I'm sorry, but I do not quite understand your message.  Is this your meaning?-- I am replacing my name on the sim card application with my friend's name. (And I don't know what a sim card is, either!) Mister Micawber Joined on Wed, Aug 4 2004 Yokohama Veteran Member 30,822 'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master-- that's all.'

That's it. Marius Hancu Joined on Wed, Apr 26 2006 Veteran Member 11,673

	Clive  +  318548 Mon, 22 Jan 07 10:21 PM Hi, No. I've never changed suppliers. I guess that means someone put a special chip in my phone when I bought it, before I received it? Clive Clive

You may have bought your cell from the service supplier. Then, by default they had to provide it with the chip too. The chip is detachable (through a small door at the back of the cell, usually). It's your identity on their network. Marius Hancu
