SIM swap for prepaid phones

Hello.  I need to swap my old regular SIM and after following the instructions to in the "How to Swap Your SIM Card Online" post I found that option is not available to me.  Are prepaid customers not allowed to do this online or am I missing something?  This is what I see when I log in to MYTELUS.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.
