Plusnet, one account for every sim?

Options
Hello everyone
Just tried to get a couple of sims from Plusnet, one for my wife and one for me.

They say that every sim has to be on it's own account?
So for 2 sims we have to have 2 credit checks, 2 payment options...

When every other network allows up to 4 sims on an account it seems a bit odd?

Have I missed something?
Thanks.

    I have two SIM only contracts with Three and they are separate, with separate direct debits, despite being placed at the same time during the same call.

    Having two SIMs "separate" still resulted in a package deal.

    I'm not sure what your issue is... it's up to the network if they want to keep SIMs/numbers on separate contracts.

    I've run multiple contracts on several networks in recent years. They are always separate contracts, even though (sometimes) they are all listed on on e on-line account. In fact, I've only vaguely heard of any account which allows several sims on one contract for consumer use.

    Some networks choose to allow it, others don't, but each company is free to make their own decisions.

    Little bit OT, but O2 allow you to bring PAYG numbers together in the same account. Not sure if they also do this with contract.
