Hi, I’ve bought an additional SIM for my car. I already have an account on an existing SIM for my phone. I’m now paying a separate monthly subscription for the addional SIM. Do I need to activate it?

Another question: How do I set an additional ‘subscription’ on my existing id account (I think that’s the jargon) for the additional SIM? The registration login page where I try to add it says it is sending a code to the new number, but I havent set it up in the car yet. Do I need to set it up in the car first?

Thanks

Hi ​@Deanc70.clark 

 

If you’ve purchased a new plan, the SIM card delivered will already be activated.

 

To register the new plan to the app (or add it to an existing app account) you’ll need to be able to receive a text to verify.

 

It’ll be worth noting that we don’t officially support usage of our SIMs in any cars, so issues may occur.
