About multiple phone numbers

When you have multiple phone numbers associated with your BlackBerry smartphone, you can switch the phone number

that you use as your active phone number. You have multiple phone numbers associated with your smartphone if one of

the following situations applies:
• Your smartphone uses a SIM card and your SIM card supports more than one phone number.
• Your wireless service provider has set up your smartphone 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're 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 smartphone 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're already on a call, you can receive calls to all phone numbers.
If your wireless service plan supports text 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 text messages.
You can change call waiting, call forwarding, and voice mail options for each phone number associated with your

smartphone.
