Old Warid SIMs need to be replaced

As long as all Warid users are not moved to the network of Jazz, the brand name will stay. However, in the space of next few months, it is expected that the brand name of Warid will be ultimately removed.

Fundamentally, all Warid users will have to obtain new SIMs in order to avail 3G and 4G services. This thumb of rule is applicable to legacy SIMs (users with non-4G SIMs). However, customers who have obtained and are using 4G compatible SIMs will be entitled to use the same SIMs without replacing it.
