Goody Bag

lindamarshall1971

I have just puchased a second phone on my account, this is a present for my son. How do I set up another goody bag just for this phone without it affecting mine.

lindamarshall1971 The rule is one SIM, one account and vice versa (unfortunately giffgaff doesn’t currently support family/group accounts).

You just need to start a new account for each new SIM. Ensure you are logged out of any giffgaff account and then activate each new SIM by going here Activate my SIM. You can use the same personal, email and payment details apart from username.

NOTE the giffgaff app does allow you to switch between giffgaff accounts so you can manage them in one place.

lindamarshall1971 Hi Linda, you can associate your card with the payments for the new giffgaff SIM, and it can share your email address you have for your giffgaff emails.
What you can’t do is use the same membername, each SIM card had to have a unique membername.
Then if you log in to the new account using the phone number (un-tick the remember me box) first this will help make sure that you have logged in to the correct account.

If course of you are using vouchers it is easier, because you can use the 53530 phone line and option 2 both purchasing goodybags and checking the remaining data, goodybag expiry and the airtime credit balance.

lindamarshall1971 You will need to set up a new account for the new Sim because you are only allowed one sim per account but you can use thesame payment details.

lindamarshall1971 You can’t unfortunately. It’s one giffgaff SIM per giffgaff account. So, you will need to create a new account with new username and password. You can however use the same email and payment details.

lindamarshall1971 You’ll have to set up a separate giffgaff account for your son.

You’ll be able to set up your own bank details on the 2nd account so you’ll be able to manage the payment side of things etc on his behalf, depending on his age of course., as you man feel he his capable of doing this himself if he is old enough.

Hi you will need a separate account for each SIM.
You can use all the same details for each account only the username must be unique to each account. You will have to pay separately of course but if you setup recurring goodybags and auto to up this shouldn’t be an issue. You can use the same bank card for each account
Hope this helps

Good Evening @lindamarshall1971

Each sim needs to have its own account with a different membername, but you can use the same Email/password and payment method.
