Can I have two phone nubmers with different plan under the same email account?

You will need 1 account per phone ... so 2 emails.

It would be nice to have it all in one spot (its been asked)

With PM you can only have one phone number per account and each account needs a unique email address. You can pay with the same credit card on multipel accounts.

On the plus side you can refer one phone to the other and get a referal rewards discount each month.

And if you have a gmail account, you can also still have emails going to the same inbox simply by using the "dot trick" or the "plus trick". That is, if your email address is bob@gmail.com, the following email addresses will all work and show up in your bob@bob.gmail.com inbox:

- b.ob@gmail.com

- bo.b@gmail.com

- bob+publicmobile@gmail.com

- bob+anythingiwant@gmail.com

One way to keep things straight would be to just use your last 4 digits of your phone number with the plus trick. It would help avoid confusion. So in the above scenario, if the last 4 digits of your two accounts were 1234 and 5678, you could just use bob+1234@gmail.com and bob+5678@gmail.com.

Not sure what this topic has to do with Account Holding. The title is misleading. Just sayin'...

@pm-smayer97@I think they were shortening the subject instead of putting - how many numbers can be held in one account.

You are right though it is important to put a descriptive topic so others can find it in the future
