eSIM Setup – Error Resolution
If you want to keep your existing eSIM
– Do not activate the new eSIM while the current one is still in use.
– The safest method is to wait until the existing eSIM expires before setting up the new one.
If you want to use the new eSIM immediately
– Even if you manually delete the old eSIM profile from your phone settings,
the system may still recognize it as active if it has remaining validity.
– You must remove the old eSIM usage history to activate the new one successfully.
– If any issues arise, contact us immediately for a quick resolution.
