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?

Has anybody successfully used Whatsapp with this Hotlink Tablet SIM card?

If can, I will buy this (micro SIM) card for tablet use.

I repeat, has anybody successfully used Whatsapp with this Hotlink Tablet SIM card?

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?

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.

You mean use the tablet sim to provide data service to the WhatsApp under the other sim number, right?

Yes, something like that should be possible.

Yes, I have a Digi SIM card in SIM1 already and I want to use the Hotlink Tablet mobile data (in SIM2) for Whatsapp using my Digi phone number.

Is that possible?

With your Digi SIM card in Slot 1, and the Hotlink Tablet SIM card in Slot 2:

- You can set the Data Service Network to Slot 2 - draw data usage from the Hotlink Tablet SIM card.
- The Whatsapp account can only be registered using the Digi SIM card number, or any other phone numbers other than the Hotlink Tablet one.

It's like using the Digi SIM card for calls and SMSes, and the Hotlink Tablet SIM card to draw the data required to use Whatsapp.

So it can be done!

Thank you. thumbup.gif
