Identifying different SIMS before activation

NikkiJS — Sun, 21 Sep 2025 10:39:56 GMT

Hi, I have just recieved 2 different SIMS, one has 60G and one has 10G for my parents so that I can look after their mobile accounts. I need to be able to identify which one is which before I activate them as they want to keep their existing numbers and my dads phone needs the higher data. Any ideas how I can do this please??

Hi @NikkiJS as part of the activation process you allocate the sims yourself.

@NikkiJS If the relevant plans don't show already when you activate them you will see which one has which data plan, then you can port the number to the correct plan after activation, you don't need to port at the same time.

That would be the simplest way to do it.
