Hobby Phone Question

[tonyvicksa]

I am switching carriers and just now realize my phone has a sim card. With that said, Is it possible to have a hobby sim card? So same phone with two different cards and two different numbers. Just swap them back and forth?

Depending on the type of phone and if they are the same carrier you can.

I use a simple program called sideline. No need to switch out sims card or use a separate hobby phone. Plus its free.

I had two ATT phones and decided to try putting the SIM from one into the other. Worked for a brief period - and then it didn't. Got a text from ATT... hey had decided all on their own that the hobby phone had been stolen and wouldn't reactivate it unless I jumped through some hoops. The hoops included linking my RW info to the hobby phone. I lost that phone...

Burner phone? There's an app for that -

AT&T Go Phone has a sim card that you can switch between phones, as long as you are switching with another AT&T phone. However, you risk damaging the card and/or losing functionality.

I don't know if that's possible, but there are apps you can use instead of carrying another phone or SIM. Use a visa gift card to pay for minutes. But texting is usually free. Nextplus/Textplus, Talkatone, TextNow to name a few.

I use my email address
My contacts are synced to email
When I register my metro pcs phone
They ask for an email
I give them my work email, and sync contacts
I mention metro PCs because they have nice phones, plans, and don't ask ID
My caller id says Sophia Morgan
