To change your AirTalk Wireless phone number, you must contact AirTalk Customer Service directly at +1 (206) 445-7825 or +1 (855) 924-7825 and request a new number. This is the only verified method to change your AirTalk wireless phone number, as the carrier assigns the number, not your phone's settings.

AirTalk phone number change limits and fees
AirTalk allows a maximum of two phone-number change requests per SIM card in any rolling three billing-cycle period at no cost. Requests beyond that limit may incur a $25 administrative fee per change or require purchasing a new SIM card. AirTalk also reserves the right to change a wireless number at any time, with notice attempted beforehand. AirTalk says it will attempt to notify the subscriber before changing a number.
How to port your existing number to AirTalk instead
If you want to bring your current number from another carrier rather than getting a new AirTalk-assigned number, the process is different. Contact Customer Service at the same numbers, then provide the number you want to bring, your current ZIP code, and your prior carrier details including account number, PIN, and billing address. The old number may keep working until the new SIM is activated, and the port request cancels automatically if the SIM is not activated within 30 days after the port is confirmed. This process covers the carrier's policies for porting and releasing phone numbers.
Why you can't change your number in iPhone or Android settings
iPhone dual-SIM pages only describe switching which existing number is used for calls, messages, or cellular data via the Phone app or Settings > Cellular/Mobile Data. For Android, no built-in phone setting changes a carrier-assigned number; the carrier assigns the new number and may issue a new SIM card. For both iPhone and Android, the only documented process is to contact AirTalk Customer Service.
