It's called a sim swap.

Once you do this your original sim wiill be de activated.

Hi

Sorry for my late reply. At the moment my emails letting me know I've had a reply are being delivered late by the forum. 😞

The swap takes from a few minutes up to approx 24 hours.

Turn your phone off and on throughout this period to help the reset.
