Have a Dual SIM phone?
Some phones, like the iPhone and Google Pixel, have Dual SIM capabilities. Dual SIM provides the convenience of having two phone numbers on a single smartphone. For example, you can have separate personal and business numbers by adding a second line. Dual SIM service is offered through a combination of a physical SIM and an eSIM. An eSIM (short for embedded SIM) is a digital SIM that lets you activate a cellular service, and an associated phone number and plan, without having to use a physical SIM card.
To activate a second line on your Dual SIM phone, simply call us at 1 888 466-2453, use our live chat, or visit us in store.
