Anybody had experience of difficulty obtaining a duplicate SIM to fit in the PCM? My service provider Orange says I must change to a Business account for this privilege!!

Ask them about their 'any phone' service...
Its a 'anything' Orange sim card that you can have people calling you go direct to without any extra charge..
It may well be a business only thing but I've not been informed of that...

I've got the 2nd SIM on my Orange Business account, but was told that it was not available on a Personal account - I think Vodafone do something similar - not sure if they would be business only also

Dont do it! Its a load of faff and if anything like vodaphone relies on you remembering to type in a code each time you want to change from one active sim to another. Far more effective to get a cheap PAYG SIM for the car and just set the diverts so the handset diverts to the car if switched off. If the car is switched off divert back to the voicemail of the handset.

Thats how 'anyphone works'... or you can press a single key on your phone..

Hi

With Orange you nominate one SIM as "Primary", when this SIM is active all calls are directed to it, when it is inactive calls go to the "Secondary" SIM - I've set the Primary SIM as the one I use in my car kit.

Texts emails etc can be nominated to go to either SIM, but will not be redirected
