how to open sim drawer with no tool


Recently recvd new SIM card for Samsung Galaxy A3. Contract switches over to rolling contract on Friday 27th March 2020. I did not get the correct tool to open the SIM drawer at the time I purchased my phone.

What can I use to open the SIM drawer - I have tried a needle, a pin and a paperclip - none of these work. Need to insert new SIM card on 27th March 2020. Please help ??

Hello @Dancingqueen,

 

We’d recommend reviewing the user manual for the handset or speaking to the retailer from where you purchased the handset for advice.

 

If you purchased the handset from us, this should have come with all of the contents in the box.

You can usually find the SIM ejector tool online via Ebay/Amazon or other shopping sites.
