Abstract

A method and a wireless device having a first Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) of a first subscription and a second SIM of a second subscription, for handling communications. The device establishes an internet connection with the second subscription when the first SIM and the first subscription are active in an ongoing communication. A notification is then received by the device over said internet connection indicating that an incoming communication directed to the second SIM has been received by the second subscription. Thereby, a user of the device is made aware of the incoming communication without requiring a forwarding function from the second subscription to the first subscription.
