Multiple phone numbers
About multiple phone numbers
When you have multiple phone numbers associated with your BlackBerry® device, you can switch the phone number that you use as your active
phone number. You have multiple phone numbers associated with your device if one of the following situations applies:
• Your device uses a SIM card and your SIM card supports more than one phone number.
• Your wireless service provider has set up your device to support more than one phone number.
• Your wireless service provider has provided you with a phone number, and your organization has provided you with a BlackBerry® MVS
Client phone number.
If your SIM card supports more than one phone number, you can make calls using your active phone number only, but you receive calls to all
phone numbers. If you are already on a call, you receive calls to your active phone number only, and any calls that you receive to your other
phone numbers receive a busy signal or are sent to voice mail.
If your wireless service provider has set up your device to support more than one phone number, you can make calls and receive calls using
your active phone number only. Any calls that you receive to your other phone numbers receive a busy signal or are sent to voice mail.
If your wireless service provider has provided you with a phone number, and your organization has provided you with a BlackBerry MVS Client
phone number, you can make calls using your active phone number only, but you receive calls to all phone numbers. If you are already on a
call, you can receive calls to all phone numbers.
If your wireless service plan supports SMS text messaging and MMS messaging, the first phone number that appears in the drop-down list at
the top of the screen in the phone application is the phone number that you use to send and receive SMS text messages and MMS messages.
You can change call waiting, call forwarding, and voice mail options for each phone number associated with your device.
