Family Extra SIM card in my account

CatherineB144 — Fri, 07 Feb 2025 10:37:48 GMT

I already have one SIM card on my account and would like an extra one for my daughter to use on my account in a phone we already use. I thought Sky mobile did family and friends but can't find any trace of information on this. Can anyone help please ?

What's 'family and friends'?

You can add an additional SIM to your account and pay for a dataplan.

Hi @CatherineB144 sky don't do family and friends, you can have up to 7 sims though on your account, just make sure you are logged in when ordering.

If I remember correctly Family and Friends was a BT landline gimmick many years ago.

Make sure you order via the account you current sim is on and you can order another here by selecting a data plan for it:

Every SIM needs an active dataplan. (There's no 'sharing' option as such)

The piggybank does not apply to unlimited SIMs.
