I have just join idmobile. When I call it uses my old number that transferred from Three, but when text people it uses my new number (which I don’t want to use). Why do I seem to have two numbers? Why hasn’t it transferred my old number to idmobile?

Hello @djvinall,

 

Do you have an iPhone?

 

This should fix it:


1)    Turn off iMessage (Settings > Messages)
2)    Restart your phone (by pressing and holding the on/off button)
3)    Tap Settings > Phone > My Number and confirm that it is correct. 
4)    If it is not correct, please enter the correct number
5)    Turn iMessage back to On (Settings > Messages)
6)    Finally, go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and see if the correct number is displayed under “Start new conversations from:”. 

 

If you don’t have an iPhone, please let us know so we can look into this further.
