I have a data sim for my router. When trying to set up my account I’m being asked for a six or eight digit number (I forget which one) that was sent to my sim. The problem is the sim is in my router, not in a phone so I’ve no idea what that number is. Short of taking the sim out of the router and placing it in my phone, what can I do to get round this?

iD Mobile doesn’t offer data-only plans. All their plans are for use with phones and to receive the registration code you’ll need to insert the SIM card into a mobile phone.
