Questions and Answers

I followed the directions but my cousin from Ireland who is using Viber and myself cannot add our numbers of each other to Viber?

How can I add the number, I have tried using the overseas code etc.

The easiest method is asking him to call you from his mobile phone (not from Viber), for example. Reject the call and carefully write down the number. The number must start with "+353" or "+44" with the plus sign included.

Make sure that you give your cousin the correct number for adding. It happens that Viber can be associated with one mobile phone number that may no longer belong to you. Launch Viber, tap on "Contacts" and scroll up to see your number under "My Number". Ask your mate to do the same. These are exactly the numbers, including the plus sign, that you need to type.
