2 sims with the same no


My wife has an idmobile sim only account and is very happy with the service. I decided to switch, so i bought a new sim through her account, intending to add the new no to her account. I created a new debit order for the new sim. Now Id mobile has allocated my wife’s no to the new si. If I transer my old no using a PAC, will this affect the old sim as well? I want to end up with 2 nos and 2 plans on my wife’s account.

A SIM can only be associated with one mobile number.

Hi @melsperryn 

 

As @andewhite suggests, only one number can be assigned to one SIM card at a time.

 

If you’ve purchased a new SIM that comes with a new number, this would be completely separate to the existing one your Wife has.

 

If you’ve purchased an upgrade for the existing plan your Wife has, you still only have one plan.
