My friend called my number with Lucky Mobile and it said they were calling Hamilton on their screen? How do I change this?

Hi there, @mrtim. Welcome to the Lucky Mobile Community, and thanks for your post.

This is not something you would be able to change. The location shown is determined by what's called NPA NXX - your area code, and then the first three numbers of your phone number. The Canadian Numbering Administrator offers a handy guide on NPA Codes (Area Codes)Opens in a new tab or window, as well a Phone Number LookupOpens in a new tab or window page where you can check the first six digits of a phone number to see its exchange area and the current company that it has been assigned to.

Let us know if you have any further questions. Best wishes. 🙂
