eSIM Availability

[helios78]

Hello, any news on the esim rollout, would it be available to your PAYG customers? I think you did complete a trial last summer but it all went quiet.

Thanks for the reply @StephR but I will believe it when I see it!

The trial was in 2020 and we're now at the start of 2023. There can't have been that many bugs to iron out.

The likes of O2, EE and Vodafone have been offering them for some time. Vodafone and EE even allow users to request a replacement QR code via online or their apps.

this year can be next week, or December. Three is the only biggest provider in the UK that doesn't support E-SIM. It's so disappointed.
This release date is being pushed since 2021.

I can’t speak for 3 but I do believe that none of the U.K. networks currently offer eSIM’s to PAYG customers so on the balance of probability assume 3 won’t either. As soon as eSIM is launched on 3 I’m sure it will be announced on here/3’s main page. The last I heard is that it will be launched sometime this year.
