Hi,

after I wasted over an hour in a pointless chat, I will try my luck here.

 

I have an account and a number with ID, which is due an upgrade (for my business)

I would like to upgrade to a mobile with dual sim.

I also have a contract and a number with a different provider (my private number), which I would like to move to ID

The plan is to use the dual sim mobile with my business and my private number. I need to keep both numbers.

 

what is the way forward?

The most important bit for me is the transfer from the other provider. Would I need to open another account with a sim only number? How does it work?

 

thanks in advance

Hi,

1.Upgrade your original iD Mobile plan and choose a handset that offers dual SIM capabilities (e.g iPhone).


2. Purchase a new SIM only plan and select eSIM.

 

3. Install eSIM on device you obtained in step 1.

 

That’s pretty much it!
Just a heads-up, iD Mobile is for personal use only, so don’t mention business use. 👍🏻
