Can I Still Recover My Sim Card Lost 3years Ago??? by phatriqk(op): 12:54am On Aug 29, 2022
I checked it on true caller it's still has my name, I was wondering if it's still possible to recover, reason being that it's registered to one of my bank account, i don't want to go through the stress of doing police report and court affidavit in order to change it. Getting a police report is especially taxing.

The SIM is gone, after 90 days ..kindly go to your bank and request for change of phone on your account.

I think if you don't use the number to make a receive a call for about 90 days the network provider will deactivate it and reissue it to another subscriber

what if you use it to browse only without making calls?

Based on information I have the operative rule is that the number in question must register either an outgoing or incoming call lasting about 61 seconds every 90 days in order for it to remain active.

Please also confirm this information from another source
