I just bought the SIM Pack. On the SIM Pack it says 1GB Free Data, Carry forward unused data up to 1 year.

What do you mean by "Carry forward unused data up to 1 year"?

It's not mentioned anywhere in Maxis Hotlink T&C website.

The initial 1GB is valid for up to one year.

By the way, where you buy the simpack?

This Hotlink Tablet SIM card comes in what size? nano SIM or micro SIM?

Since the SIM card does not have a MAXIS mobile phone number, how do I use it with Whatsapp?

The regular sim is mini with micro can pop out. If you need nano, can request for it.

Tablet sim cannot received calls or even sms currently, so you can only use it for WhatsApp with another number.

You can use WhatsApp but you can't use the sim's number for the account because it won't be able to receive the verification sms or call.

If yes, how did you install Whatsapp on the tablet without a phone number?

If you are using the phone number in another SIM card to install Whatsapp on the tablet,
what happens to the existing Whatsapp account of that phone number that is already installed in another smartphone?

as dgboy has mentioned, it is not possible. You can however use another number to activate your whataspp. You can get a tron sim card and reload 10 per year for one year validity, or use onexox/xox for 28 months validity.

You will be logged out from your whatsapp at your smartphone, so it is better for you to get a sim card as mentioned above to get a sim card that can receive the verification sms/call.

Install WhatsApp on the tablet sim device
Enter the mobile number you want to use
Receive verification code sms on the phone having that number
Enter verification code into the WhatsApp
You're all set!

If not already there, you will need to import your contacts into the tablet sim device for WhatsApp to sync them.

If the number already in use for Whatsapp on that phone, it will fail to work. I found it's sometimes possible to keep the same account running on two devices if you remove the sim from one and use WiFi only but no promises and don't expect messages to sync between devices.

Thanks for the replies.

It is too much of a hassle to install Whatsapp on this Hotlink Tablet SIM card without a phone number.

Need to use another SIM card with a phone number. doh.gif

Wait a minute.

Can I use this Hotlink Tablet SIM card (in SIM2 slot) of a dual SIM smartphone which already has a Whatsapp account for the SIM1 slot?

It is a dual SIM dual standby smartphone.
