Can't add phone number to new online account

I’ve had 4 numbers (for myself and various family members) for many years. They were all paid for by me and under my name.

I now just have 2 numbers with ID; my wife and daughter.

I’ve created a “new” online account successfully, but I can’t add either of their numbers. I’ve tried using name/DOB for me, my wife and my daughter, but it says “details not recognised” in all cases.  Previously I had a separate online logon for each phone number, which was a bit awkward but worked.

Sounds like I’m not alone. Please could you advise how to proceed

Regards,

Martin Wilkinson

    Hi I have the same issue as the user above. Have 3 phones and could only add two. It does not allow me to add the third line.

     

    thanks in advance

    Hi ​@Gary Costelloe 

     

    Sorry to hear this, where does it say the SIM is invalid? In the app or on the device when you put it in?

     

    What device are you putting it into?
