    Google a number for the network and phone them. If you explain the situation you'll be put through to the right place. It needs to be reported so that the current sim can be blocked, or someone could run up massive bills that your dad'll be liable for. Once that's done they should explain how to get a replacement sim.

    If you lost your contract phone than you have to choose another phone for contact with every person. You also have to manage all accessories of mobile phone and also manage all information of all the device.

    I'm sorry, but I have no idea what your post is even supposed to mean?

    It is gibberish. What are you trying to say?

    OP

    Any unlocked phone will work(with same size SIM card ..). You simply need a new SIM card for the contract that you have, 3G will provide this.
    As mentioned, get in touch with 3G and block the Lost Sim otherwise you may have a nasty suprise come the end of the month ...

    If the phone is actually in your Fathers name (as opposed to him being a sponsor for you with yourname on the contract) then he will have to do this.

    If you are nearing the end of your contract then you may be able to avoid a lot of hassle/ "expense" by extending the contract and getting a new phone. I put expense in quotation marks because getting a "free" phone via a contract is rarely cheap.
