Does anyone know how to transfer a Skinny mobile broadband modem to someone else's account?

Or just let the account expire and dump it in the electronics recycle bin at stores?

You need to ring up Skinny and they will remove it from your account. The new owner just needs to register with the details at the bottom and it gets attached to their account. Sim card needs to go with the device.
You selling one?

I'm keen if you have a B618 device? I have a B315 which I purchased from someone else, works well.

Thanks
