I like sim cards, especially FREE sim cards. Can't get enough of them. The problem I face with having so many sim cards is keeping them active.
When you get a sim or four from O2 or T-Mobile you have a month or two to activate it before it's just a piece of crap with some foil on it. Having many sim-free devices allows me to switch it up every so often but this can lead to issues, mainly people not having all of your numbers or missing important phone calls so I call upon my alter-ego (I'm in shared 3rd-person mode right now, got two personalities battling to speak for each other) to do something interesting and nowhere near problem-free.
Call Divert.
[insane rambling]
It's a useful feature for me because I always have one specific sim in a handset in the event that some seriousness has taken place, very few people have this number, but they've all reached me through it at one point in my mobile communications experience due to the wonder that is Call Divert. Not all networks support this feature - mostly if you're trying to redirect to an alternative provider - because it can be used to create AIT, or Artificially Inflated Traffic, to either boost network figures or generate revenue through premium-rate gateways which is totally illegal. So I'll probably make a New Year's resolution to cut down my provider switching and maybe even stick to the one trusty number in the near future, who knows.

If you like free sims as much as me then the following places can give you a fix (UK only):
O2 - check regularly
Orange - offered irregularly but more often
T-Mobile - about the same as O2 but fewer sims
Vodafone - no official offers but various free sim sites keep stock
Hello! First post and probably a short spiral of mini-rants before forgetting where and who I am. Have a read of my profile, browse my many (heh) pictures or abuse me if you want, or you might be overcome with holiday joy and be nice to poor little emotionally-scarred me. I work at Royal Mail and have a good crack there, every few minutes there's cheering when someone does something wrong followed by pockets of people becoming Kool-Aid Guy or whooping like a nutty tropical bird. That's about all I can say about my workplace as I'm bound by the Official Secrets Act and all that junk. Out of work (not often when I'm on nights Monday - Friday) I like to relax with friends and light a few rolled herbal cigarillos, maybe use a ceramic water-filled device to prevent the destruction of rain forests and all that climate change stuff. I take photos and record things nearly all the time (not in work) and if I'm ever in a picture I normally sport a shocked/in pain expression but it's rare that I write about my experiences, especially when most would make me look more insane than I do above. Before I got my new Nokia N81 (8GB) and noticed it's blogging software making a record of my daily activities such as piecing together conversations and pictures I recorded myself and a few workmates jumping into the large perimeter bushes at the Royal Mail office and it was so much fun that my phone outright died with excitement, so here I am, Nokia N81 doing all the dirty work as I sit back and make the occasional adjustment.
