Here’s a list of documents you will need to provide to get the SIM converted:
1. An NOC from your dad stating that he has given consent for the conversion.
2. His ID proof and Address proof
3. He will need to sign the form too.
4. Along with this, he will need to give another letter stating the he has no objection to transferring the ownership of the SIM card to you.
5. along with this letter you will need to furnish ID proof and Address proof.
6. Any charges pertaining to your service provider for these services will apply.
I hope this is helpful 🙂
I’m using airtel prepaid from past 4 years which is registered with my friend name and now he is not reachable i mean he is working in other state.I have all my contacts from this number from two days mobile showing sim not installed.i tried with other mobile also but it shows same,sim is active i want to replace the sim but service provider asking ID proof who registered.
Hey Naveen
This is a tricky situation. I suggest that you track down your friend as providing an ID proof is a must for getting the SIM replaced.
To avoid any complications as this in the future, you can ask your friends for an NOC for getting the ownership of the SIM transferred to your name. I hope it works out for you 🙂
hi, just wanted to know what will happen to my current prepaid balance when i switch to postpaid for vodafone
Hey Ankit
The existing balance in your prepaid account will become invalid once your switch to postpaid. The amount will not get carried ahead to your new account. Hence I suggest that you maintain minimum balance so as to minimize loss at the time of switching 🙂

Hi I change recently airtel to docomo post paid but I not get 3g connection from this network while I checking with customer care they not respons correctly please suggest what I will do now I don’t know
Hey Vijay
Its an unfortunate situation you have found yourself in :/ Since you’re on a postpaid plan, you will have to continue to follow up with the officials to include 3G data connection in your plan. Have you tried approaching them on social media (twitter/fb)? It might get you a quicker response from the officials.
