I have a Huawei modem in my camper van for wi fi connection only, i e no phone. I have just installed the
I D sim card, and have god internet connectivity. However, I can't access my I D account. The registered (or at least it will be, I hope) 'phone number is for the card in the modem, and therefore incapable of receiving SMS messages. Can I get the magic secret code number by another means, so that I can register the account?
Thanks

+24Hi @Richard White ,
Unfortunately the Security Code is sent to the registered number for the protection of the account.
In order to obtain the securtiy code I would advise to temporily insert the SIM into a handset to get the code for this.
The code should only be requested when reigstering the account so you shouldn't need to remove the SIM card after this.
I hope this helps.

Thanks for that. Problem solved now through ‘Live Chat’.
Being old myself, I assumed that this meant speaking to a young person in the Philippines or Bosnia, so didn’t try it initially. However, as you will know LC is a very helpful service.
Thanks again.
