What do I need to know about swapping sims?
A while back, I asked about swapping sims between my 2 Xfinity phones (an original iPhone SE and a Moto e here, in this thread: https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/xfinity-mobile/can-i-swap-sims-and-as-a-result-phone-numbers-between-my-two-xfinity-mobile-phones/62adee2a72213058e5286b41
@DaveO3 helped, and I finally worked up the courage to give it a try. He was spot on, unfortunately, in that "... certain functions like voicemail and visual voicemail that work differently on iOS and Android may be a problem..." When I swapped Sims, I had none of my iPhone voicemails available on my Moto.
Now, I just realized (and BOY, this is weird) that I cannot use the "built-in" visual voicemail on the Moto - I have to use the Xfinity Visual Voicemail app. I'm hesitant to try the swap again because I'm afraid of losing my voicemails, so I want to ask this specifically: If I swap Sims - should my voicemails from the iPhone show up on the Moto, and vice-versa?
I have two phone numbers and intend to phase one of them out - so it's important to me that I retain the data that I hope to retain.
What else do I risk losing, if I swap sims?
