Introduction

If you've been approved for SafeLink Wireless, you may be wondering whether it's possible to add other people to your account. Since SafeLink is a Lifeline-supported service, there are important restrictions and guidelines to consider. The following information can help you determine what's allowed and what steps you can take if adding someone is an option.

Go to the SafeLink Wireless Website

Visit the SafeLink Wireless website.

Search for the SafeLink Wireless Menu

Locate the SafeLink Wireless menu on the homepage. It's represented by three horizontal lines in a square in the upper-right corner of the website.

Open the Menu

Click on the square containing the three lines to expand the SafeLink Wireless menu.

Locate the Support Line

After expanding the menu, look for the line that says "Support." It's below "My Service" and above "Why SafeLink?"

Expand the Support Menu

Click on the down-pointing arrow to the right of "Support" to expand the menu.

Go to the "SafeLink Support" Page

Locate the "Technical/Service Support" line in the Support menu. Click on it when you find it. Doing so will take you to a page that says "SafeLink Support" at the top.

Locate the Search Bar

Find the horizontal search bar on the "SafeLink Support" page. It says "How can we help you?" and has a magnifying glass icon on its right side.

Start Your Search

Click on the SafeLink Support search bar. This will cause your phone's keyboard to appear and the cursor to blink in the box. Type "eligibility household," then click the magnifying glass icon.

Locate the Relevant Search Result

Find the relevant search result. Your best option is the line that says "What Does One Per Household Mean?" Click on it when you find it. This will direct you to a section of the same name.

Read the Section

Read the "What Does One Per Household Mean" section. If you need further assistance, please continue to the next step.

Contact SafeLink Wireless Customer Support

If the section didn't have details that answered your question, it's a good idea to reach out to SafeLink Wireless customer support. They can answer your question about your specific SafeLink Wireless account and whether you can add someone to it. Make sure to specify whether or not the person lives with you and their relationship to you.

Take notes throughout the call for future reference, including the name of the SafeLink Wireless representative you spoke with, the date you called, and what their response was to your question.

Conclusion

If you want to add another person to your SafeLink Wireless account, your best option is to reach out to a representative to get a direct response. They can inform you about current policies.

Why does GetHuman Write How-to Guides for SafeLink Wireless Problems?

GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like Comcast in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our What do I do if my Xfinity TV or internet is out? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
