    Hi ​@Annaliese,

     

    Thanks for getting in touch.

     

    From what you’ve described, it sounds like a new SIM-only plan may have been taken out rather than an upgrade to your existing contract, which would explain why you now have two numbers and are still being charged for the original plan.

     

    Please contact our Live Chat team so they can review both plans and confirm exactly what has happened: https://www.idmobile.co.uk/live-chat

     

    If necessary, they can assist with returning the new plan and then direct you to our Sales Team so you can complete the SIM-only upgrade correctly while keeping your existing number.

     

    Regards,
