I just bought a galaxy s4 from rogers and didn't realize it requires a micro SIM card.... Can I order the $100 with free micro SIM then transfer onto it? or can I order a micro SIM directly from speakout?

Thanks

Speakout sells both mini SIM card and micro SIM cards. Just order the card you need. You can get Speakout to transfer the old balance to the new SIM by calling them. The old SIM will be deactivated though when you do that.

As for the free SIM with $100 purchase, you can decide which SIM you need, and get that.

thanks. speakout doesn't issue free sim card replacement, do they?

or maybe I should've just cut my own card? is it dangerous to do so?

You should have a good chance of success cutting your own card if you do it carefully, and cut the right spot. I would have $10 handy and easy, quick access to a Speakout Micro SIM card if things do not go your way though. Copy the numbers on the SIM card first before you cut though. Might come in handy when you decide to transfer your account.
