2 Phones, 1 Number, No Whatsapp?!

Hi there, as stated above, i am current holding on to 2 phones, 1 for weekend and 1 for weekend. I am subscribed to the Singtel MultiSIM thingy which allows me to switch between phones without removing the physical SIM card.

However the problem now comes with the software. Whatsapp only allows its apps to run on 1 device at one time. Thus i would need to re-verify my whatapps everytime i switch my phones.

Now the big problem. it seems that Whatsapp have set a limit on how many times a user can switch around its app. i was shown this notification when i tried to verify my Whatsapp on my weekend phone.

Tried contacting through email i.e. iphone-support@whatsapp.com but it was a generic automated advice, wasn't much of a help. Delete-Restart-Reinstall did not work for me.

Searched online and found that i cant either call +16503324937 using the number i wish to verify or i can sms to+14083062615 my email using the number i wish to verify. Both ways failed and i have yet to receive any reply from them.

Any idea what to do next?

Thanks for your advice in advance. =)

whatsapp only allow 1 phone. Just remove the sim card and switch lor.

 

[oklono]

yup. understand. however by doing so, i still need to verify with the whatsapp server to activate my whatapp. switching the SIM card ain solving the issue with the limited SMS and Voice Verification.

Thanks for your advice anyway.

typo!! 1 for weekday 1 for weekend. duh. why i need 2 phone for weekend. =.= so sorry for the misunderstanding.

 

[revogsx]

i think whatsapp also pay for international sms for verification..

why do you need 2 phone with same number?

 

[DAREN771]

Guess he got one weekend mistress and weekday wife so to avoid detection he use 2 phones

 

[stanleyanderson]

Just *141# before you activte whatsapp on your desired phone lah

 

[siron]

I faced this prob too. Yep, whatsapp incur charges on overseas SMS, therefore they cap each number to XX times. Anything above, your number would be blacklist.

I had to write in... and they reset it for me.

nope. it dun work that way. even if i dun key in *141# to set the phone as master phone, they will still send the verification code to which ever master phone i am using.

Your weekday phone is an iPhone 4 non cam?

 

[DAREN771]

then just stick to just one phone lor. Or change to a new job that allows camera phone?

u need to send mail to whatsapp support, nothing can be done for your scenario.
