If you plan on using a Nexus 5 on t-mobile - HURRY

[gtbarry]

Yesterday and today t-mobile had prepaid SIM activation kits for free. And that includes standard shipping.

And most reports have the Nexus 5 using a micro SIM. You can play it safe and get both a micro and nano kits. You can order two kits at a time.

According to GSMArena the Nexus 5 uses a nano-SIM:
LG Nexus 5 - Full phone specifications

Also IBTimes:
Google Nexus 5 to Have Nano SIM Card - IBTimes UK

Not sure if it's 100% verified.

The repair manual that leaked says it's micro sim, so there's conflicting reports.

Did you have to put credit card info in to order? Seems strange since they are free.

Yes. Back when I first joined the t-mobile prepaid world a few months ago, I had to put a credit card in during a similar "free SIM kits" sale and was never charged. But it does seem odd.

Which is why I put in no link in my posting. So you could go to t-mobile yourself and not think you might be on a phishing site.

Ok cool. Thanks. Not sure I'll be leaving Verizon yet but am tempted by the nexus 5. Guess I'll grab a couple Sims now just in case.

Good idea.
