Not even if it’s free. It makes no sense to network day-and-night but then they can’t reach you after a few months because another mobile phone operator offered a sim-swap with free prepaid load. Besides, you’ll just use up the ‘free’ load to text all your contacts of your new number.

It might be fine or maybe even just a slight nuisance for your friends and relatives that you change your mobile number every three months, but not for your clients. It’s a sign that you are unreliable, that you might be unreachable when they need you, or that you might be into shady activities.

So try to keep your contact information, phone numbers and even email addresses, unchanged for as long as possible. Someone you met in a bookstore or coffee shop two years ago might be calling you tomorrow for that deal you’ve been waiting for.
