    Re old Flip cellphones
    I have lots of flip cellphones that don't work anymore and I had my money
    Transferred to the my newest phone (it's also a go-phone).

    I was told to get rid of a Sim card but all I see is a battery. I want to get
    Rid of the phones (Best Buy and Staples recycle them) but I don't want
    Anyone getting the telephone numbers and my information on them.

    Any suggestions?

    Sim cards may be hidden behind the battery.

    Hey, do the 'best buy' pay you something for those old phones or just a barter system? Or else, they just take it for recycle and don't give anything in return.

    Only GSM based phones use a SIM, T-Mobile and ATT and phones using their system. Sprint and Verizon don't have them.
