hello there,

 

I ported my number over from giffgaff a few months ago but when i text certain people it is still showing as the temp number the sim came with, when i look at the about this phone section and the sim information it is showing as the temp number also.

i can't edit the number on these sections, is there any way to ge tthis fixed?

Hi @Bhoydy 

Thanks for coming here. 

Does the same happen if you call these numbers? 

Are you using the Samsung messaging app or a third party/chat app?

hi,

its just on texts as far as i can tell.

It seem as though it is only I use the samsung messaging app, but like i say when i look at the about phone section, that is showing as teh temp number and when i look at the sim information its showing as the temp also.

Thanks @Bhoydy 

If you give us a call on 150, the team can complete a network refresh to see if this updates the number for you. 

Let me know how you get on 🙂

Leanne.
