Windows 10: How do I use my mobile number for two microsoft accounts?

My personal microsoft account had my mobile phone number linked to it. Today I linked my phone to another microsoft account for a few months while I help the organisation sort out their computer. To do this we removed a previous persons number as they are no longer available and put mine in its place. Now microsoft have deleted the number from my personal account. I did not want it removing from my account and want to reinstall and use it for my personal account and also keep it for both accounts temporarily. Is there a way to do this, or is there an alternative to linking my mobile numbe

I want to transfer a mobile telephone number from a blocked account to my current account

Transferring a mobile telephone number from a blocked account to your current account typically involves several steps, including working with your mobile service provider to initiate the transfer process. Here's a general guide on how to proceed:

1. Contact Your Current Mobile Service Provider: Reach out to the customer support of your current mobile service provider (the one you want to transfer the number to). Explain that you want to transfer a telephone number from a blocked account to your current account. They will guide you through the necessary steps and provide you with the required information.
   
2. Gather Information: Your new mobile service provider will likely need some information to initiate the transfer process. This could include:
   
   • The mobile number you want to transfer.
     
   • The account number associated with the blocked account.
     
   • Any security or authentication details required to verify your identity.
     
3. Release the Number from the Blocked Account: If the blocked account is under your name, you might need to work with the previous mobile service provider to release the telephone number from the blocked account. This could involve clearing any outstanding dues or resolving any issues that led to the account being blocked.
   
4. Initiate the Number Transfer: Your new mobile service provider will initiate the process of transferring the telephone number from the blocked account to your current account. They will coordinate with the previous provider to ensure a smooth transition.
   
5. Provide Necessary Documentation: Your new mobile service provider may require you to provide certain documents or details to complete the transfer. This could include proof of identity, account information, and any other documents they specify.
   
6. Wait for Confirmation: Once the transfer process is initiated, it might take some time for the transfer to be completed. Your new mobile service provider will keep you informed about the progress and provide you with any updates.
   
7. Activate the Number on Your Current Account: Once the transfer is successfully completed, your new mobile service provider will activate the transferred telephone number on your current account. You should be able to use the number as usual.
   

It's important to note that the specific steps and requirements for transferring a mobile telephone number may vary depending on your location, the mobile service providers involved, and any regulations in place. Make sure to communicate directly with both your current and previous mobile service providers to ensure a smooth and successful transfer process.

 

Windows 10 Mobile isn't picking up Outlook.com account

I upgraded my husband's Lumia 640 from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 Mobile. His Outlook.com account isn't listed in Accounts under Settings in People and Calendar. I've been through all the steps to add an account, but the Outlook.com account still isn't
listed. Can anyone suggest a workaround for this problem?
