Joint or linked mobile accounts

My partner & myself Plan to join sky mobile soon.

 

We are currently with o2 but found a better plan on confused.com

What's the process to have our numbers linked  to the same account, with just one ( the same) email address ? Should we both join sky mobile first  THEN link the accounts.

Hopefully it's easy.

 

Also hope switching from O2 to skyonike will be easy and keep our current phone numbers.

@KeithJayne  You both can't join under seperate accounts, only one person must sign up and purchase the sim plans under that one account.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

Re: Joint or linked mobile accounts

Hello

So, if my partner and myself leave O2 then I can join sky, will sky let me add my SIM and my partners SIM to one ( my ) account 

Such that my account will have 2 Sims, mine and my partners ?

Not sure how that would work going through confused.com ,???

 

Had hoped I could link the two Sims to one sky account

Hi @KeithJayne  yes you can have up to 7 sims on one account but you can't link 2 mobile accounts. Having sims on one account allows both sims to share the account piggybank for topping up data if required.

Hi @KeithJayne  you need to set up one sky account, order two sims on that account (will have new numbers) and activate them, get PAC codes for both sims from your current provider, gives PAC to sky and the next working day your numbers will transfer to sky.

Re: Joint or linked mobile accounts

So if I have a sky account, the 2nd SIM I add must have a SIM only contract with someone,  how does that work

Not sure what you mean @KeithJayne  ? You set an account in your name, you add two sims from sky to that account, you name them eg Tom for the first and Harry for the second. If you both have sims that you want to use those numbers when coming to sky you get PAC from your current provider(s) and give those codes to sky and next working day those numbers replace the new sky numbers.
