Hi, Id really like to have a sim and an esim with separate numbers one for work and one for personal on the same plan. Ideally I'd like to use the sim in one phone and an esim in the other so I would effectively have two numbers and two devices on one plan. Does anyone know if this is possible?

No, not currently.

 

You can have 2 accounts and 2 different numbers, one on a SIM in phone ‘a’ and the other on an eSIM in phone ‘b’. You can however view both plans on just one phone if you’d prefer.

 

But don’t mention business use if you order, we’re not supposed to use iD for business use, but I won’t tell on you!

Lol thanks, it's not my business just the firm I work for, I'd like to stop them calling me on my main number out of business hours. Thanks this helps.

No problem, happy to offer advice

 

I know what you mean. I used to have 2 numbers on one SIM back in the day with One to One. Primary number was given to family and secondary given to my then bosses. As soon as I stepped in the door at home the secondary was sent to voicemail.

That worked well until they gave me a company phone with the stipulation it was available 24hrs a day. Being a 1990’s Nokia when I got home all I did was unscrew the aerial and when it rang the signal was so bad the said leave it until the next working day.
