Frequently Asked Questions

Important Information

When will I get my phone number

The sim card will be activated on the activation date you choose in your order and you will receive your Israeli phone number via Email on that day.

if you ordered the virtual USA number we will also setup the virtual number for you and send you the virtual number.

You will also get an email from Hot Mobile with your account login information when the signup process is complete.

Verify that your phone is unlocked

It is possible that your cellular phone was purchased from a cellular provider (or any other source) and is locked, making it unable to function with a SIM card from any carrier except one.

In Israel, it is now illegal for cellular providers or any other source to lock cellular phones for use with SIM cards from only one specific carrier. Devices which were sold after January 2011 are supposed to be unlocked and able to function with use of any SIM card. If your device was purchased before January 2011, and is locked, the cellular provider or shop which sold the device must unlock it free of charge.

How can I tell if a device is locked?

If you have already switched from one carrier to another, using the same device, this indicates that it is not locked.

You must check if the device works with a SIM card from a carrier other than the one currently being used: Insert a SIM card that belongs to a different carrier than the one you currently in use, for example: if you are currently using a SIM card from Orange, insert any other SIM card, such as Cellcom, Pelephone etc.
If the phone still works (you have reception and are able to make/receive calls) with the SIM card you inserted, this indicates that the device is unlocked.
If you do not have reception at all or see an error message such as “Invalid SIM” (usually displayed at the top of the screen where the carrier in use is listed), this indicates that the device is locked.
(If the device being tested is an older Motorola phone and you see the message “Subsidy password” this strictly indicates that the phone is locked)
You may call the company you purchased the phone from and request that they check if it is locked or not.
Note: It is possible to check if a device is locked or not simply by calling the cellular provider it was purchased from, there is no need to go in person. If the device is locked, it can usually be unlocked during the same phone call.

How do I unlock a locked device?
Contact the cellular provider or shop which the locked phone was purchased from and request that they unlock it; this should be done for no charge.
It is recommended to contact the cellular provider which the phone was purchased from, either by calling their customer service call center or by use of the chat service available on their website. In most cases the phone will be unlocked immediately.
Older devices usually cannot be unlocked over the phone and require you to go to the service center of the cellular provider or shop which the phone was purchased from in person.

Please note:

Unfortunately, devices cannot be unlocked by calling Hot Mobile customer service, only the company which sold the locked phone can unlock it.
iPhone users – After having the device unlocked it is required to connect the iPhone to your computer and perform a synchronization/backup in order to complete the process (this must be done after having it unlocked but before inserting Hot Mobile SIM card).

Commen Issues

iMessage not working

To read instructions from Apple on how to fix issues with Imessage click here https://support.apple.com/en-vn/HT204065

Using iMessage is hardly any different from using an app like WhatsApp, Imessage even shows up in separate threads.on your phone.

All Apple cares about is verifying ownership of your phone number. After that, you can turn off the cellular radio completely, remove your sim card, whatever, and Apple doesn't care. iMessages never get delivered to your wireless carrier and have nothing whatsoever to do with your sim card.

The only difference with Apple's service? Once you insert a new sim card with a new number, that new number gets activated to be used with iMessage and the older number gets deactivated. For all Apple knows, you might have canceled that number's service and will no longer ever use it.
