Spare Sim card

[jaymis45]

Is  it possible for me to get a spare sim card for a 4g router that linked to same phone number ?

@jaymis45  No,  you can only have one sim at anyone time with a number on it.

Hi @jaymis45 ,

The closest you can get is if you are a pay monthly customer with a high data allowance and you can add an Additional Line, at a cost, to which you can gift data.

The Additional Line SIM will have its own number but this is unlikely to be a problem in a 4G router as you are unlikely to want to place a phone call to that router. Good luck!

Yes it’s annoying just want a spare sim as backup and to use in a mifi or 4g router without paying additional.

@jaymis45  That’s not possible and never has been.   If you require another sim that sim will have its own number and so it’ll need payment to have a connection be that PAYG or contract.
