2 sims, 2 prov. area codes, 1 imei doable ? | Technical service details | Consumer forum

Most certainly. The account is tied to the SIM card, not the phone. The IMEI on the phone really does not matter other than for blacklisting purposes, (If phone is reported stolen) or to identify the model phone. Your carrier might want to know the phone model for configuration and support purposes, but the SIM card does not care what you have for a phone,

From a practical standpoint, it is just easier to get 2 phones because they can be cheap and you got twice as many batteries. But if you have to share the phone between 2 SIM cards, that is also not a problem.

With 2 SIM cards, you would definitively get 2 phone numbers.

I might add that with Speakout, all incoming calls are 25 cents a minute, no matter where you are in Canada. And if you make a call in the area you are in, that is a local call. So you might need only one SIM card.

Where are the 2 areas you are going to be?
