So, I have an old Blackberry and I have a Colombian number. I'm currently in the US and I bought a Samsung Galaxy. So, the question is, I'm going to use a US number for a couple of months in the new phone, but I want to have my Colombian number for WhatsApp..., how do I do?

Do they send you a text message to verify the ancient account? Because since I'm in another country I won't be able to receive it.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Veronica, welcome to AndroidPIT! :)

You have to be able to receive a text message or a phone call on the Colombian number if you want to use it for WhatsApp. There is sadly no way around this.

Liebe Grüße, Bastian
