Does anyone know if the sim card I have installed in my unlocked Z30 will be transferable between it and the Priv? Thanks

No the Z30 uses a Micro SIM and the PRIV requires a Nano SIM so no, And I wouldn't advice you to use a SIM card adapter with your PRIV just get a brand new Nano SIM and activate it!
This is probably a dumb question. Would I have to get another phone number if I wanted to switch back to my old Z30 If I wanted to use it instead of the Priv? Would my carrier, (Bell), charge me for this privilege?

What about a card from a Passport? Will that fit in the Priv?
I clicked and flicked this on my Passport.
It looks like you will be okay, I just did a quick Google search and it says the Passport uses a Nano sim.

Well if you get a Nano SIM card and activate it with your current number for the PRIV, and wanna also want to use your Z30 then you would need a new number, I don't think you can have 2 SIM cards with the same number.
Thank you very much for your response, I love my Z30 and thought I could just swap sim cards between the two phones, let's say if I was going somewhere that I didn't want to risk getting my new Priv damaged, (hunting) , I could leave it at home and take my trusty, ( less expensive) ,! Phone with me, lol.

Thank you. Not trying to be lazy, but I appreciate you taking the time to do that...!!

The Passport is a Nano.
If you wish to switch back and forth get a Nano AND an adapter for a Nano to a Micro (just a piece of plastic.) You can then switch; you can also get a nano-to-standard adapter if you wish, so now you can use all three.
NEVER insert the adapter without the SIM in it, however -- it will lock up in the socket and if you pull it out you WILL damage the socket, doing severe damage to the contacts.
It is also possible to cut down SIMs to smaller sizes, but not advisable going to Nano-sized as the Nano is also thinner and you may do damage to the socket as well. Cutting a standard to micro is usually safe provided you remain "within the lines" :)
No problem, glad to help!

So Nano Sim is what the classic has right?

So as long as I'm careful to have the Nano Sim inserted into the adapter first it is possible... great to know. I will do further research into this so I don't damage anything. Thanks

I got this one the other day, they made the switch without any problems. It can also be used has an adapter so you can do all 3 sizes sims card with that one.
